ABEKAS VIDEO SYSTEM MAC Prefix: Registry Identification
Summary
- // what this is
- Abekas Video System is registered to MAC prefix
00:00:76in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with00:00:76, that block was registered by Abekas Video System — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- The 24-bit prefix fixes the first-octet Group and Local bits at zero. The remaining 24 bits allow 16,777,216 possible suffix values; this is not a device or shipment count. A match indicates the registry assignment only.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning 00:00:76 matches the IEEE MA-L assignment to ABEKAS VIDEO SYSTEM. The registry record lists a registered address in Redwood City, California, United States; that registry information does not verify the company’s current location. The assignment identifies the organization named in the record, not a particular device, product, or operating system.
The assignment covers the first 24 bits of a 48-bit address, leaving 24 suffix bits, or 16,777,216 possible suffix values. This is a mathematical address-space count, not a count of devices or shipments. A matching address can support identification of the assigned prefix; it cannot establish how commonly it is deployed.
For 00:00:76, the first octet is 00. Its Group bit (bit mask 01) and Local bit (bit mask 02) are both zero. Those bits are fixed for an exact match to this prefix; changing either creates a different prefix. RFC 7042 describes the significance of these bits and the structure of 48-bit MAC identifiers. The supplied IEEE CSV record does not provide an assignment date.
