MAC address vendor

ACE Antenna Co., ltd MAC prefix A0:21:8B: no device mapping established

Primary prefix
A0:21:8B
Block
MA-L

Summary

// what this is
ACE Antenna is registered to MAC prefix A0:21:8B in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with A0:21:8B, that block was registered by ACE Antenna — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
// analyst note
A MAC address starting with A0:21:8B matches this MA-L registry assignment. The 24-bit prefix leaves 24 suffix bits, or 16,777,216 possible values, which is not an observed device count. Group and Local bits are both zero for this exact prefix; changing either bit produces a different prefix. No device mapping is established.

About this vendor.

Updated  ·  Confidence: High  ·  2 sources  ·  How this page is checked

A MAC address beginning with A0:21:8B matches an IEEE MA-L assignment registered to ACE Antenna Co., ltd; the supplied evidence does not identify a device or product using it. The assignment is evidence of a registry match, not proof of who made a captured device or how it is deployed.

This is one 24-bit prefix, leaving 24 bits for possible suffix values: 16,777,216 combinations. That is a mathematical address-space count, not a count of devices or shipments. A matching address establishes only that its first three octets match the listed assignment.

RFC 7042 explains that the first octet contains Group and Local bits. For this exact prefix, both are zero: the Group bit is 0 and the Local bit is 0. Those bits are fixed by the literal prefix; changing either produces a different prefix. The supplied records contain no assignment dates.
