ABK North America, LLC: Vendor Known, Device Unknown
Summary
- // what this is
- ABK North America is registered to MAC prefix
00:22:70in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with00:22:70, that block was registered by ABK North America — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- The exact 24-bit prefix has Group bit 0 and Local bit 0; a matching address has 24 remaining suffix bits, yielding 16,777,216 possible suffix values, not an observed device or shipment count. A matching prefix indicates a registry assignment, not a specific device or security state.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning 00:22:70 matches an IEEE MA-L assignment to ABK North America, LLC; the available evidence does not identify a device type or product using it. The assignment records the country as the United States. This identifies the registry holder for the prefix, not a particular device, operating system, current legal identity, or security state.
The prefix is 24 bits long, leaving 24 trailing bits and 16,777,216 possible suffix values. That is a mathematical address space, not a count of devices or shipments. The first-byte Group and Local bits are both zero for this exact prefix. Changing either bit creates a different prefix; these fixed bits do not imply that the bits can vary within an address matching 00:22:70.
For identification, compare the first three octets of the captured MAC address with 00:22:70. A match supports the assignment lookup only. RFC 7042 describes EUI-48 identifiers as an initial assigned prefix followed by additional bits, and explains the significance of the Group and Local bits. The available records provide no product catalog or device mapping for this assignment.
