Cornet Technology — defense/tactical comms hardware (3 MA-L blocks)

A MAC address beginning with 00:10:1B, 00:03:23, or C4:10:62 belongs to Cornet Technology, Inc. or its Chennai, India subsidiary, typically seen on tactical and defense communications hardware such as IP gateways, secure switches, or deployable LTE base stations rather than consumer devices.

Cornet Technology, Inc. is a Springfield, Virginia defense-electronics manufacturer founded in 1989, ISO 9001:2015 and AS9100D:2016 certified, that builds C4ISR-class equipment: tactical/secure communications switches, IP gateways, red/black conferencing switches, manpack 4G/private-5G base stations, rugged VPX computers, and video encoders for US military and allied government customers.

The IEEE registry maps three separate MA-L (24-bit) organization records to this corporate family. 00:10:1B and 00:03:23 both register the same organization name, "Cornet Technology, Inc.," at Taipei, Taiwan and Springfield, Virginia addresses respectively; C4:10:62 registers "Cornet Technology India Pvt Ltd" in Chennai.

The Chennai entity's own site states it is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the US parent, doing embedded/rugged computing work for customers including India's Defence Research and Development Organisation — so the US and India registrations are independently confirmed as one corporate group. The Taiwan registration shares the identical organization-name string but no independent third-party source was found tying it to the same legal entity beyond that name match, so it is recorded here as Likely rather than Confirmed common ownership.

None of the three prefixes is one of the ~428 shared IEEE-held /24 bases (e.g. 70:B3:D5) sub-allocated across many unrelated companies — each is a standard full-block MA-L assignment, so attributing device context directly to Cornet Technology for any of the three is a direct, non-shared claim.
