00:0B:8F MAC Prefix: AKITA ELECTRONICS SYSTEMS CO.,LTD. Assignment
Summary
- // what this is
- Akita Electronics Systems is registered to MAC prefix
00:0B:8Fin the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with00:0B:8F, that block was registered by Akita Electronics Systems — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- A literal match fixes the first-octet Group and Local bits at zero. The MA-L match boundary is 24 bits; 24 suffix bits permit 16,777,216 possible values, which is not a device or shipment count. A match identifies the registry assignment, not a specific device or its deployment or security state.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning 00:0B:8F matches an IEEE MA-L assignment registered to AKITA ELECTRONICS SYSTEMS CO.,LTD.; the prefix alone does not identify a device type or prove which vendor made a captured device. The assignment covers the first 24 bits of a 48-bit MAC address, leaving 24 suffix bits, or 16,777,216 possible suffix values. That is a mathematical address-space count, not a count of devices, shipments, or observed traffic.
The first octet is 00. Its Group and Local bits are both zero, so they are fixed for this literal prefix. A match requires the first 24 bits to equal 00:0B:8F; changing either bit changes the prefix and no longer matches this assignment. RFC 7042 describes the structure of 48-bit MAC identifiers and the significance of these bits.
The supplied IEEE MA-L record associates AKITA ELECTRONICS SYSTEMS CO.,LTD. with Japan. It provides no assignment dates, device categories, products, or product-to-prefix mapping. Use the matching boundary and registry name to interpret a prefix match; the match does not establish a particular device, current legal identity, deployment, or security state.
