ADS GmbH MAC Prefix 14:8A:70 — Device Type Unknown
Summary
- // what this is
- ADS is registered to MAC prefix
14:8A:70in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with14:8A:70, that block was registered by ADS — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- A 24-bit prefix match leaves 24 suffix bits, or 16,777,216 possible values. The first octet 0x14 has Group and Local bits clear; both are fixed for an exact prefix match. A match establishes the registry assignment only.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning with 14:8A:70 identifies an IEEE MA-L assignment registered to ADS GmbH; the supplied evidence does not identify a device type or product that uses it. The record lists Germany, but does not establish current vendor identity or deployment of the prefix.
This is a 24-bit prefix, so it matches the first three octets of a 48-bit MAC address. The remaining 24 bits allow 16,777,216 possible suffix values; that is a mathematical address-space count, not a device or shipment count.
The first octet, 14, has Group and Local bits both clear. Those bits are fixed for an exact 14:8A:70 match. Changing either bit changes the prefix. RFC 7042 explains the significance of these bits in MAC addresses. A match shows the registered prefix only; it does not establish a particular device, product, operating system, or security state.
