MAC address vendor

ADVANCED Motion Controls — 00:13:84 (MA-L)

Primary prefix
00:13:84
Block
MA-L
Status
Active

Summary

// what this is
Advanced Motion Controls is registered to MAC prefix 00:13:84 in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with 00:13:84, that block was registered by Advanced Motion Controls — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
// analyst note
A globally-administered 00:13:84 address identifies genuine Advanced Motion Controls hardware — most plausibly a servo drive / motion controller on an industrial control network. Substance rests on company/product context, not multi-OUI volume.

About this vendor.

Updated  ·  Confidence: High

ADVANCED Motion Controls holds a single MA-L block, 00:13:84, registered to "Advanced Motion Controls" at 3805 Calle Tecate, Camarillo, California, US 93012 — the company's operating headquarters, an 86,000-square-foot facility. This is not a bare shell registration: the registrant is an identifiable, privately held manufacturer founded in 1987 by Sandor Barta and Daniel Schoenewald, with a documented product line of industrial servo drives and motor controllers for brushed and brushless DC motors, linear motors, and voice coils. The networking relevance is direct: the drives ship with industrial-Ethernet and fieldbus interfaces — EtherCAT (including CANopen-over-EtherCAT and Ethernet-over-EtherCAT), Ethernet POWERLINK, CANopen, Modbus TCP, RS-232, and RS-485 — so hardware bearing this OUI is most plausibly a servo drive or motion controller on an industrial control network. The FlexPro and DigiFlex Performance (DP-Family) product lines are the EtherCAT-capable families. A common data-quality trap to avoid: third-party lookup tools such as maclookup.app display a "registered 06 February 2005, last updated 17 November 2015" date for 00:13:84 — this is a database artifact, not an IEEE fact. IEEE publishes no assignment/registration date for MA-L blocks, so no date should be attributed to IEEE or surfaced as a registration date. A second unrelated caveat: an "AMC Manager" product exists from Silex Technology (a different company); do not conflate its advisories with Advanced Motion Controls of Camarillo, for which no product-specific CVE was found.

No IEEE date
IEEE public OUI data (the IEEE MA-L registry columns: Registry, Assignment, Organization Name, Organization Address) contains NO assignment/registration date. maclookup.app's "registered 06 February 2005 / updated 17 November 2015" for 00:13:84 is a third-party database artifact, not an IEEE fact, and must not be published as an IEEE registration date.
[Confirmed] — IEEE the IEEE MA-L registry; maclookup.app (artifact only)
Security/abuse context
Unknown — no CVE or security advisory found specific to Advanced Motion Controls (Camarillo) servo drives. An unrelated "AMC Manager" (Silex Technology) surfaced in search and must not be conflated. [Unknown]
Analyst note
A globally-administered 00:13:84 address identifies genuine Advanced Motion Controls hardware — most plausibly a servo drive / motion controller on an industrial (EtherCAT/CANopen/Modbus) network. Only one MA-L block is registered, so substance rests on company/product context, not multi-OUI volume.
