Summary

// what this is
Cal-Comp Industria E Comercio DE Eletronicos E Informatica LTDA is registered to MAC prefix 10:DC:B6:2 and 1 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with 10:DC:B6:2, that block was registered by Cal-Comp Industria E Comercio DE Eletronicos E Informatica LTDA — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.

About this vendor.

Updated  ·  Confidence: Medium

Cal-Comp's MAC footprint spans the New Kinpo Group's manufacturing entities. The block confirmed on maclookup.app this pass is registered as "CAL-COMP INDUSTRIA E COMERCIO DE ELETRONICOS E INFORMATICA LTDA" (the group's Brazil manufacturing subsidiary), with the parent Cal-Comp Electronics based in Taipei, Taiwan and major operations in Thailand. Verified samples include the MA-M sub-blocks 10:DC:B6:2/28 and 18:A5:9C:B/28. These OUIs appear on printers, networking gear, telecom equipment, consumer electronics, and 3D printers (XYZprinting) assembled for other brands. Cal-Comp and Kinpo Electronics are both part of the New Kinpo Group (alongside XYZprinting), so their registrants should be aliased. This is an EMS/ODM "OUI ≠ brand" case like Foxconn or Flex — and note that the confirmed entity here is the Brazil subsidiary, so additional group entities are expected to hold further OUIs. For triage, a Cal-Comp or Kinpo OUI generally flags contract-manufactured hardware sold under a third-party brand.

Special note
EMS/ODM "OUI ≠ brand" case (like Foxconn/Flex). Cal-Comp and Kinpo Electronics are both part of the New Kinpo Group — alias the sibling registrants. The confirmed maclookup entity is the Brazil subsidiary; expect other group entities to hold additional OUIs. 10:DC:B6 and 18:A5:9C are shared IEEE MA-M base ranges (the IEEE Registration Authority is their MA-L holder); only the assigned /28 sub-blocks belong to Cal-Comp, not the whole base OUI. The IEEE registry publishes no assignment dates, so none is stated here. [Confirmed]
