Alerton Technologies, Inc. MAC Prefix: Device Type Unknown
Summary
- // what this is
- Alerton Technologies is registered to MAC prefix
00:60:2Din the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with00:60:2D, that block was registered by Alerton Technologies — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- The 24-bit prefix match leaves 24 suffix bits, with 16,777,216 possible suffix values. These values are not a device or shipment count. The first-byte Group and Local bits are both fixed at zero for the literal prefix; changing either bit produces a different prefix. No source maps the BACtalk Integrator or a device category to this prefix. A match indicates a registry assignment, not a particular device or current deployment.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning 00:60:2D matches an IEEE MA-L assignment to ALERTON TECHNOLOGIES, INC. The available evidence does not map this prefix to a device category, so the device type is unknown. A match identifies the registry assignment; it does not establish which device, product, or organization currently uses the address, or whether the address was deployed in traffic.
The company is associated in a 2001 ACHR News article with the BACtalk Integrator, described as a BACnet-compliant global controller with Ethernet and MS/TP connectivity. This supports HVAC and building control product context for the legal entity, but does not link that product to the prefix. The prefix covers 24 of the 48 MAC-address bits, leaving 24 suffix bits and 16,777,216 possible suffix values—not a count of devices or shipments.
For this exact prefix, the first-byte Group bit and Local bit are both zero. A literal match fixes those bits. Changing either bit creates a different prefix; it does not describe variation within 00:60:2D. RFC 7042 explains the interpretation of these bits and the matching structure of MAC prefixes. The IEEE CSV record does not display an assignment date.
