Airspan Communications, Ltd. — MAC prefix identification

A MAC address beginning with 00:01:AA matches an IEEE MA-L assignment to Airspan Communications, Ltd.; the prefix alone does not identify a device type or prove that Airspan equipment is present. The assignment fixes the first 24 bits, leaving 24 suffix bits. The IEEE record lists no assignment date in the supplied CSV data.

The first-party announcement describes Airspan Communications Limited as a subsidiary of Airspan Networks Holdings LLC and names Strato-Twin, an AI-enabled digital twin for modeling High Altitude Platform Station communications networks. Airspan also describes its portfolio as spanning in-building, outdoor, and air-to-ground solutions, including DAS, Open RAN, and small cells. These are company-level descriptions, not evidence that a particular product uses this prefix.

For 00:01:AA, the first-byte Group bit and Local bit are both zero, so the literal prefix denotes an individual, globally administered address range. A change to either bit produces a different first byte and therefore a different literal prefix match. The 24-bit suffix permits 16,777,216 values; this is address-space capacity, not a count of devices or shipments. A captured matching address establishes only a prefix match, not a specific model, operating system, current vendor identity, or security status.
