China Mobile (Hangzhou) Information Technology Co., Ltd. — 13 prefixes (MA-L)
Summary
- // what this is
- China Mobile is registered to MAC prefix
20:96:8Aand 12 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with20:96:8A, that block was registered by China Mobile — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- Treat as a real, substantive multi-OUI vendor entity rather than a shell; device-type and security-history fields should stay null/Unknown rather than inferred from the parent company's general IoT business.
About this vendor.
China Mobile (Hangzhou) Information Technology Co., Ltd. (中移(杭州)信息技术有限公司) holds 13 MA-L OUI blocks registered to slightly varying punctuation of the same legal name, all tracing to a single registered address on Yuhangtang Road in Yuhang District, Hangzhou, Zhejiang. The organization is not an anonymous single-block registrant: third-party aggregators and Dun & Bradstreet corroborate a real corporate entity with a named principal and a stated web presence (komect.com), and the entity operates as an affiliate of China Mobile Communications Group, the state-owned carrier behind large-scale IoT platforms such as OneNET and cellular module/SIM lines. That parent linkage plausibly explains the 13-prefix footprint — consistent with a hardware/module producer rather than a shell registration — though no specific product datasheet or CVE tied to this exact subsidiary was located, so device type and any security history stay unverified rather than inferred as fact. One block (F0:10:AB) carries an apparent registry-side address typo ("Yuhang Tong Road") that is worth flagging but not correcting, since it is IEEE's own recorded text.
- IEEE assignment / registry

- Registered address
- No. 1600 Yuhangtang Road, Wuchang Street/Sub-District, Yuhang District, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, CN (postal 310000 on most blocks, 311100 on 24:00:FA and B4:BA:12; F0:10:AB has an apparent registry typo "Yuhang Tong Road" for "Yuhangtang Road") [Confirmed] — IEEE the IEEE MA-L registry
- Country
- CN [Confirmed] — IEEE the IEEE MA-L registry
- Registry class
- MA-L only; no MA-M or MA-S blocks found for this org in the IEEE MA-M registry / the IEEE MA-S registry [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-M registry, the IEEE MA-S registry
- Company identity / substance
- real named legal entity, principal Ding Wang, website www.komect.com, affiliate of China Mobile Communications Group [Likely] — https://maclookup.app/vendors/china-mobile-hangzhou-information-technology-co-ltd, https://www.dnb.com/business-directory/company-profiles.china_mobile_(hangzhou)_information_technology_co_ltd.04d604da246d25528ffc37b87904e6fb.html
- Company status
- presumed active as a China Mobile Group affiliate; no dissolution or shell indicators found [Likely] — same sources as above
- Device type
- not independently confirmed; parent-company context (IoT/cellular module business) is suggestive but not a confirmed product line for this subsidiary [Unknown] — https://www.cmi.chinamobile.com/en/product/mobile-business/iot
- Security / usage context
- no vendor-specific incident, CVE, or usage report found; broader Chinese-cellular-module supply-chain commentary exists but is category-level, not attributable to this entry [Unknown] — no citation attributed at vendor level
- Allocated date
- null — IEEE's public the IEEE MA-L registry (Registry, Assignment, Organization Name, Organization Address columns) publishes no assignment date; third-party "registration date" fields (e.g. maclookup.app's initial-registration/most-recent-update timestamps) are aggregator crawl artifacts, not IEEE facts, and are not recorded here [Confirmed]
- IANA reference
- null — not applicable to an OUI/MA-L assignment; no RFC reference exists or is implied [Confirmed]
- Duplicate check
- none of the 13 prefixes appear in this site's own enrichment records; distinct from the existing vendor-china-mobile-iot.md and vendor-china-mobile-group-device.md entries (different China Mobile subsidiaries) [Confirmed] — this site's own enrichment records
