Summary

// what this is
Advance Wireless Technology is registered to MAC prefix 00:12:B3 in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with 00:12:B3, that block was registered by Advance Wireless Technology — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
// analyst note
A matching MAC address identifies the registry assignment only. The first-byte Group and Local bits are both 0 for this exact prefix; changing either bit produces a different prefix. The 24-bit suffix space has 16,777,216 possible values, not an observed device or shipment count.

About this vendor.

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

A MAC address beginning 00:12:B3 matches an IEEE MA-L assignment registered to Advance Wireless Technology Corp. The supplied evidence does not identify a device type associated with this prefix.

The prefix fixes the first 24 bits of a 48-bit MAC address. Its first byte is 00, so the Group bit and Local bit are both 0. For this exact prefix those bits are fixed; changing either bit produces a different prefix. The remaining 24 bits allow 16,777,216 possible suffix values, which is not a count of devices or shipments.

A matching address supports identifying the registry assignment only. It does not establish a particular product, deployment, traffic prevalence, current vendor identity, or security state. IEEE CSV records supplied here do not show assignment dates.
