Abeeway MAC prefix 20:63:5F identifies a registry assignment, not a specific device
Summary
- // what this is
- Abeeway is registered to MAC prefix
20:63:5Fin the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with20:63:5F, that block was registered by Abeeway — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- The 24-bit prefix leaves 24 suffix bits, allowing 16,777,216 possible suffix values. These are possible values, not a device or shipment count. The exact prefix has Group bit 0 and Local bit 0 in its first octet; changing either bit yields a different prefix. Product catalog information does not map any product to this prefix.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning 20:63:5F matches an IEEE MA-L assignment registered to Abeeway. That match identifies the prefix registrant in the supplied record; it cannot identify a particular device, product, deployment, or current operator. The record lists France as the country indication.
The prefix is 24 bits long, leaving 24 suffix bits and 16,777,216 possible suffix values. This is a mathematical address-space count, not a count of devices or shipments. In the first octet, 20 hexadecimal has both the Group bit and Local bit clear. For this exact prefix, those bit values are fixed; changing either bit produces a different prefix. RFC 7042 explains the significance of these bits and the structure of MAC prefixes.
Abeeway’s product catalog describes tracking and asset-management solutions, including Smart Badge, Micro Tracker, Compact Tracker, Industrial Tracker, and Geolocation Module. The supplied material does not map any of these products or device categories to this prefix. Assignment dates are unavailable in these IEEE CSV records.

- IEEE MA-L assignment for Abeeway, prefix
20:63:5F. - What it establishes
- A matching captured address falls within this registered prefix; it does not establish the device model, deployment, or current operator.
- Prefix boundary
- 24-bit prefix with a 24-bit suffix; 16,777,216 possible suffix values.
- First-octet bits
- Group bit 0 and Local bit 0 for this exact prefix; changing either bit makes a different prefix.
- Country indication
- France, as shown in the IEEE record.
- Product context
- Abeeway’s catalog lists tracking and asset-management products, with no supplied mapping to this prefix.
