Primary prefix
10:1D:51
Block
MA-L
Status
Active

Summary

// what this is
8Mesh Networks is registered to MAC prefix 10:1D:51 in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with 10:1D:51, that block was registered by 8Mesh Networks — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
// analyst note
10:1D:51 is a single-organization MA-L assignment reliably identifying 8Mesh Networks Limited hardware. No CVE or security advisory was found for the company as of an August 2026 search. The vendor's own 'FIPS140-2 Compliant' claim is unverified marketing copy, not a confirmed certification.

About this vendor.

Updated  ·  Confidence: Medium  ·  7 sources  ·  How this page is checked

A MAC address beginning with 10:1D:51 belongs to 8Mesh Networks Limited, a Hong Kong-based IoT and smart-city platform company, and is typically seen on IoT gateway or mesh-networking hardware sold under the company's own branding.

The IEEE MA-L registry lists a single 24-bit OUI block, 10:1D:51, assigned to "8Mesh Networks Limited" at Unit 607, 6/F, Yen Sheng Centre, 64 Hoi Yuen Road, Kwun Tong, Hong Kong. No MA-M or MA-S sub-allocations, and no additional MA-L rows under this or a variant name, were found in the registries checked.

8Mesh is an identifiable operating company rather than a bare registration: its product site describes a cloud IoT/AI management platform ("27 Ready Solutions") spanning smart city, smart building, digital signage, parking, asset tracking (RTLS), and fleet management, with stated support for LoRaWAN, NB-IoT, Sigfox, a proprietary "SG-IoT MESH" layer, and public WiFi. A related product, 8MAPS Smart City OS, appears at a separate branded subdomain.

Independent corroboration includes LinkedIn and Crunchbase company profiles (founded 2017, Kwun Tong/Kowloon HK, 11-50 employees, founders Jerry Lin as CTO and Ta Cheng Norman Hsu as co-founder/VP Sales) and a USPTO trademark filing for "MESH" covering network access server hardware, routers, servers, and IoT device-control hardware. No independent datasheet, teardown, or field report was found tying a specific device model to the 10:1D:51 prefix, so device-type identification here rests on the vendor's own site and the trademark filing rather than an independently observed product.

No CVE, security advisory, or malware association was found for 8Mesh Networks or 8mesh.com as of an August 2026 search. The vendor's own site claims "FIPS140-2 Compliant" security; no certificate number or NIST CMVP listing was found to verify this, so it is treated as unverified marketing language.
