MAC address vendor

Alarm.com — 3 prefixes (MA-L)

Primary prefix
00:1C:FA
Block
MA-L
Status
Active

Summary

// what this is
Alarm.com is registered to MAC prefix 00:1C:FA and 2 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with 00:1C:FA, that block was registered by Alarm.com — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
// analyst note
An Alarm.com OUI on a device indicates an Alarm.com-branded security/smart-home hub, panel, or sensor; this pass could not resolve which of the three prefixes maps to which product line, so treat device-type attribution as general, not model-specific.

About this vendor.

Updated  ·  Confidence: Likely

A MAC address beginning 00:1C:FA, 50:40:74, or B8:3A:9D belongs to Alarm.com, the publicly traded (NASDAQ: ALRM) cloud-connected smart-home and security platform provider — these are the vendor's three confirmed IEEE MA-L (48-bit) OUI assignments, with no MA-M or MA-S blocks found under the same name.

The three prefixes cluster at two Virginia addresses roughly five miles apart: 00:1C:FA registers to 8150 Leesburg Pike, Vienna, VA 22182, while 50:40:74 and B8:3A:9D both register to 8281 Greensboro Dr., Suite 100, Tysons, VA 22102. Two independent third-party vendor lookups (maclookup.app, hwaddress.com) agree on all three prefixes under the same registrant.

Business-registration records list the registrant as "Alarm.Com Incorporated" (Alarm.com Holdings, Inc.), a cloud-based smart-home and commercial security IoT platform sold through professional security dealers — consistent with, though not directly confirming, a hardware program spanning multiple device generations.

The company's described product line covers security panels and touchscreen hubs, door locks, motion sensors, garage-door controllers, cameras and video doorbells, smart thermostats, and energy/water sensors. No source in this pass ties any one of the three specific prefixes to a named model number, so device-to-prefix mapping stays Unknown.

Third-party aggregators list "registered" dates of 2007, 2015, and 2023 for the three prefixes, but these are database-scrape artifacts, not IEEE facts — the IEEE OUI registry publishes no assignment dates. No vendor-specific security incident or CVE was found for these OUIs in this pass.
