Aeronix, Inc. — 00:0B:D1 (MA-L)
Summary
- // what this is
- Aeronix is registered to MAC prefix
00:0B:D1in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with00:0B:D1, that block was registered by Aeronix — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- Single-OUI vendor, but matching registry address, 40-year operating history, on-topic named product SKUs, and a documented government contract establish company substance beyond a shell registration.
About this vendor.
Aeronix, Inc. holds a single IEEE MA-L block, 00:0B:D1, registered to 1775 W. Hibiscus Blvd, Melbourne, FL 32901 — an address that matches the company's current, publicly listed headquarters exactly. Founded in 1985 by five engineers, Aeronix is an employee-owned defense and aerospace electronics firm now operating under the Aeronix Technologies Group (ATG) umbrella alongside sister companies ITI Engineering and Systems Integration Plus. Its core network-relevant product line is rugged Gigabit Ethernet switching hardware for military and commercial aircraft and ground vehicles — C6ISR networking gear including the GES NXT-28 (28-port, four 10G plus twenty-four 1G ports, built for F-16 integration), the 12-port GES GEN2, and the GES-GV8 ground-vehicle variant. The U.S. Army awarded Aeronix a documented $1.8M contract for 404 GES-GV8 units for MRAP vetronics networking, corroborating real production and deployment rather than a bare registration filing. Although only one MA-L block was found for this vendor in the cached registry snapshot, the matching address, forty-year operating history, named on-topic product SKUs, and government contract together establish company substance well beyond a shell registrant.
