MAC address vendor

ALCORN MCBRIDE INC. MAC Prefix: 00:10:46

Primary prefix
00:10:46
Block
MA-L

Summary

// what this is
Alcorn Mcbride is registered to MAC prefix 00:10:46 in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with 00:10:46, that block was registered by Alcorn Mcbride — 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's Group bit at 0 and Local bit at 0. The 24-bit prefix leaves 24 suffix bits, or 16,777,216 possible suffix values; this is not an observed device or shipment count. A change to either bit creates a different prefix. A prefix match identifies the registry assignment only, not a particular device, product, current legal identity, or security state.

A MAC address beginning with 00:10:46 matches the MA-L prefix assigned to ALCORN MCBRIDE INC.; the supplied records do not identify a device class or product for that prefix. The match establishes the registry assignment, not which device sent a captured frame or whether it is currently deployed by the named company.

The prefix is 24 bits, leaving 24 bits for address values beneath it: 16,777,216 possible suffix values. This is an arithmetic range, not a count of devices, shipments, or observed addresses. For this exact prefix, the first octet 00 has Group bit 0 and Local bit 0. Those bits are fixed for a literal prefix match; changing either produces a different prefix.

RFC 7042 explains that 48-bit MAC identifiers can use an initial organizational prefix followed by remaining bits, and describes the Group and Local bit conventions. The available evidence provides no product catalog or explicit device mapping for this legal entity.
