MAC address vendor

ACACIA NETWORKS, INC. — MAC Prefix Identification

Primary prefix
00:A0:95
Block
MA-L

Summary

// what this is
Acacia Networks is registered to MAC prefix 00:A0:95 in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with 00:A0:95, that block was registered by Acacia Networks — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
// analyst note
This exact 24-bit prefix has first-octet Group bit 0 and Local bit 0. It leaves 24 suffix bits, or 16,777,216 possible suffix values; that is not an observed device or shipment count. A prefix match indicates the registry assignment, not a particular device, operating system, current vendor identity, or security state.

A MAC address beginning with 00:A0:95 identifies the IEEE MA-L assignment registered to ACACIA NETWORKS, INC.; the record does not identify a device category or product. The supplied IEEE record lists the country as the United States, but provides no assignment date.

This is a 24-bit prefix, leaving 24 bits for the suffix: 16,777,216 possible suffix values. That is a range of possible addresses, not a count of devices, shipments, or addresses observed in use. RFC 7042 explains that the first-octet Group and Local bits have special meaning. For this exact prefix, both are zero; changing either bit produces a different prefix. A matching address supports identifying the registry assignment, not the device, operating system, current vendor identity, or security state.
