A MAC address beginning with 00:05:95 is registered to Alesis Corporation, but the supplied records do not identify a device category or product using it. The assignment identifies a registry holder; it does not establish the manufacturer of a particular device or its current legal identity.

The entry is one MA-L assignment, 00:05:95, with 24 bits fixed and 24 bits remaining. The IEEE CSV record supplies no assignment date. The company’s country is listed as US in that record.

In the first octet 00, the Group bit and Local bit are both zero. For this exact prefix, those bits are fixed: changing either creates a different prefix and no longer matches 00:05:95. A matching address leaves 24 suffix bits, or 16,777,216 possible suffix values. That is a mathematical address-space size, not a device or shipment count. RFC 7042 describes the 48-bit MAC structure and these bit meanings.
