MAC address vendor

Advanced Spectrum Technology Co., Ltd. — 00:26:EB (MA-L)

Primary prefix
00:26:EB
Block
MA-L

Summary

// what this is
Advanced Spectrum Technology is registered to MAC prefix 00:26:EB in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with 00:26:EB, that block was registered by Advanced Spectrum Technology — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
// analyst note
Thin-but-real single-OUI registrant: one FCC-certified 2009 product provides genuine device context beyond the bare IEEE registration, but there is no ongoing company web presence to corroborate current operating status.

About this vendor.

Updated  ·  Confidence: Low

A MAC address starting 00:26:EB belongs to Advanced Spectrum Technology Co., Ltd., a Taiwan-based OUI registrant whose one confirmed product is a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi access point/router (FCC ID XM3WA653A1, model WA653A1). The IEEE registry holds exactly one block under this name — no additional MA-L, MA-M, or MA-S assignments were found.

The registry address (1F., No.67 Jhongjheng Rd., Sinjhuang, Taiwan, TW 242) is corroborated independently by the FCC grantee database: grantee code XM3 is registered to "Advanced Spectrum Technology Co.,Ltd" at an address matching the same street, number, and postal code, with only a minor romanization spelling difference. This confirms a real Taiwanese entity behind the registration, not a bare shell address.

That grantee code's sole FCC filing, XM3WA653A1, is a "High Power Wireless AP Routes" device — a 2.4 GHz (802.11 spread-spectrum) Wi-Fi access point/router certified under FCC Part 15C UNII rules, granted 2009-09-03. No other products, filings, or company presence were found under this name.

No company website, distributor listing, product review, or news mention turned up in web searches. maclookup.app shows a "Registration Date: January 5, 2010" for this OUI, but that is a third-party database artifact, not an IEEE fact — IEEE's public the IEEE MA-L registry publishes no assignment or registration dates for MAC prefixes, and none should be attributed to IEEE here.
