AIxLink MAC prefix C0:95:73: Vendor identified; device type Unknown
Summary
- // what this is
- AIxLink is registered to MAC prefix
C0:95:73in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins withC0:95:73, that block was registered by AIxLink — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- The
C0:95:73prefix is 24 bits, leaving 24 suffix bits and 16,777,216 possible suffix values. The first-byte Group and Local bits are both 0 for this exact prefix; flipping either bit creates a different prefix. A match indicates an assignment only, not a device, deployment, prevalence, identity currency, or security state.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning C0:95:73 matches an IEEE MA-L assignment to AIxLink; the assignment does not identify a particular device or product. No supplied first-party evidence describes AIxLink’s products or business, so those details remain Unknown.
This is a 24-bit prefix, leaving 24 bits for the suffix: 16,777,216 possible values. That is a mathematical address space, not a count of devices or shipments. The prefix match establishes only that the address begins with the assigned bits; it does not establish deployment, prevalence, current vendor identity, or security status.
In C0 the first-byte Group bit is 0 and Local bit is 0. Those values are fixed for this exact prefix. Changing either bit produces a different prefix; the assignment does not describe bit variation within this fixed prefix. RFC 7042 explains the relationship between 48-bit MAC identifiers and assigned prefixes, and the significance of these bits.
