MAC address vendor

Cal-Comp Electronics & Communications Company Ltd. — 3 prefixes (MA-L)

Primary prefix
00:0B:2E
Block
MA-L
Status
Active

Summary

// what this is
Cal-Comp Electronics & Communications is registered to MAC prefix 00:0B:2E and 2 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with 00:0B:2E, that block was registered by Cal-Comp Electronics & Communications — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
// analyst note
Multiple MA-L assignments plus a documented top-10 EMS/ODM industry profile establish company substance beyond a bare registration. Per-prefix device type stays unconfirmed; no CVE/botnet/security incident found tied to this vendor or these OUIs this pass.

About this vendor.

A MAC address beginning 00:0B:2E, F0:21:9D, or 00:1F:82 identifies hardware from Cal-Comp Electronics & Communications Company Ltd., a Taiwan-based electronics manufacturer registered at No.147, Sec. 3, Beishen Rd, Shenkeng District, New Taipei City.

Cal-Comp Electronics & Communications is part of Taiwan's New Kinpo Group, one of the larger electronics manufacturing services (EMS) and original design manufacturing (ODM) providers. Its own industry-association profile describes it as a leading EMS provider in Southeast Asia and among the global top 10, building printers, storage devices, consumer electronics, set-top boxes, smart-home appliances, and power supplies for OEM customers across sites in Taiwan, China, Thailand, Malaysia, Brazil, Mexico, and the Philippines.

Because it is a contract manufacturer, devices carrying these three OUIs typically ship under a customer's brand rather than the Cal-Comp name. No source found ties any of the three blocks individually to a specific product or device category — treat per-prefix device type as unknown beyond that general product-line context.

This entry is distinct from two similarly-named registrants: the already-finalized vendor-cal-comp entry (the group's Brazilian MA-M subsidiary, CAL-COMP INDUSTRIA E COMERCIO DE ELETRONICOS E INFORMATICA LTDA, Manaus), and no other overlap was found. IEEE's public OUI data carries no assignment date for any of the three blocks here, so none is claimed.

Device class

distinct from the already-DONE vendor-cal-comp entry (the group's Brazilian MA-M subsidiary) and from no other conflicting registrant found this pass [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-M registry, this site's own enrichment records
IEEE assignment
3 MA-L prefixes → Cal-Comp Electronics & Communications Company Ltd., registered Shenkeng Dist, New Taipei City, TW [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry (lines 10406, 11698, 18328)
Registry / block size
MA-L (24-bit OUI); 3 assignments (00:0B:2E, F0:21:9D, 00:1F:82) [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry. IEEE's public OUI data publishes no assignment/registration date; any third-party "date registered" for these prefixes is a database artifact, not an IEEE fact.
HQ / country
No.147, Sec. 3, Beishen Rd, Shenkeng Dist, New Taipei City, TW [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry
Company status
active; part of New Kinpo Group, a top-10 global EMS/ODM provider [Likely — inferred from a current corporate/industry-association profile page, not an explicit "active" statement] — ethercat.org member profile, kinpogroup.com
Device types
printers, storage devices, consumer electronics, set-top boxes, smart-home devices, power supplies (company-level product lines; not confirmed per specific prefix) [Likely] — ethercat.org member profile
Notable products
no product individually tied to any of the three prefixes; general EMS/ODM output only [Unknown]

Special note
this is a distinct registrant from the already-finalized vendor-cal-comp entry, which covers the New Kinpo Group's Brazilian MA-M subsidiary (CAL-COMP INDUSTRIA E COMERCIO DE ELETRONICOS E INFORMATICA LTDA, Manaus). Both belong to the same parent group but hold separate IEEE registrations.

Analyst note
multiple MA-L assignments plus a documented top-10 EMS/ODM industry profile establish company substance beyond a bare registration; per-prefix device type stays unconfirmed, and no CVE/botnet/security incident was found tied to this vendor or these OUIs this pass (absence of findings, not a confirmed clean record).
