ACL Airshop BV — 74:53:A8 (MA-L)

The MAC prefix 74:53:A8 is registered to ACL Airshop BV, a Netherlands-based aviation-cargo equipment company headquartered at Kantoorweg 7, West Knollendam — the same address that appears on the IEEE registration itself, which corroborates the registrant as the operating business rather than a manufacturing proxy. ACL Airshop is a substantive, identifiable firm: incorporated in 2002, it leases, sells, repairs, and controls Unit Load Devices (ULDs — the containers and pallets that hold air cargo) and manufactures cargo nets and straps, operating across 55-plus airport locations on six continents with FAA (FAR 145) and EASA (Part 145) repair certifications and IATA partner status. The network-connected side of the business is IoT asset tracking: ACL Airshop markets Bluetooth ULD tags (branded "COREInsight") that pair with its FindMyULD app, plus other trackers described as using GPS, Wi-Fi, NB-IoT, LTE-M, and Sigfox to give airlines real-time visibility of cargo containers without re-certifying the ULD. This is a single-OUI registrant — only 74:53:A8 was found across the IEEE MA-L, MA-M, and MA-S registries — so the vendor page rests on the identifiable parent business and its published product line, not on multiple assignments. No public source maps 74:53:A8 to a specific tracker model, so any device-to-OUI binding stays inferential. Note that IEEE publishes no assignment date for OUIs; any "date registered" shown by third-party MAC lookup sites is a database-scrape artifact, not an IEEE fact, and is not recorded here.

IEEE assignment

74:53:A8 → ACL Airshop BV, MA-L block [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry line 24414; the Wireshark manufacturer database line 36742

Registry / block size

MA-L (24-bit OUI); a single prefix, not a multi-OUI footprint [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry line 24414. Searched the IEEE MA-M registry (MA-M) and the IEEE MA-S registry (MA-S) for "Airshop" — no matches; this OUI exists only as MA-L

Registered address / country

Kantoorweg 7 West, Knollendam, NH, 1525 RJ, NL [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry line 24414 (address matches ACL Airshop's published HQ, corroborating the registrant)

Company status

active [Confirmed] — aclairshop.com; dnb.com company profile

Company substance

established global aviation-cargo firm, incorporated 2002, ~220 employees, 55+ locations across six continents; FAA (FAR 145) + EASA (Part 145) repair certifications; IATA partner [Confirmed] — aclairshop.com; dnb.com; aclairshop.com/global_footprint.php; iata.org partners directory

Device types

IoT asset trackers for air-cargo logistics — Bluetooth ULD tags ("COREInsight") used with the FindMyULD app; other trackers described as GPS / Wi-Fi / NB-IoT / LTE-M / Sigfox [Likely] — aclairshop.com/FindMyULD.php; aclairshop.com/ULD_tracking.php; findmyuld.com (no public source binds a specific model to 74:53:A8, so device-to-OUI mapping is inferential)

Usage context

B2B aviation / air-cargo logistics — ULD leasing, sales, repair, control, and asset tracking for airlines and cargo carriers worldwide; not a consumer product [Confirmed] — aclairshop.com; iata.org

Security / abuse

no CVEs, breach reports, or abuse/botnet associations found for ACL Airshop or its tracking products [Unknown] — sourced null; absence of public disclosure for a niche B2B IoT vendor is expected and does not confirm posture either way

Registration date

none — IEEE publishes no OUI assignment date; the IEEE MA-L registry and the Wireshark manufacturer database carry no date field. Third-party "date registered" values are database-scrape artifacts, not IEEE facts, and are not recorded [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry (no date column)

IANA Reference

not applicable to an OUI/MAC-vendor entry; left blank [Confirmed]

Analyst note

74:53:A8 on a globally-administered address identifies genuine ACL Airshop hardware (its cargo-tracking IoT tags); the single-OUI footprint means MAC-based fleet sizing is not meaningful, and OUI alone won't distinguish tracker models.
