Foxconn Interconnect Technology — 2 prefixes (MA-L)
Summary
- // what this is
- Foxconn Interconnect Technology is registered to MAC prefix
8C:CB:DFand 1 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with8C:CB:DF, that block was registered by Foxconn Interconnect Technology — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- As a specialty connector/antenna/cable manufacturer rather than a consumer-device brand, these prefixes most likely surface on embedded modules inside OEM host devices rather than on end-user-marketed hardware; this is a plausible inference, not independently corroborated.
About this vendor.
Foxconn Interconnect Technology — operating publicly as FIT Hon Teng Limited (HKEX: 6088) — is a Taiwan-based subsidiary of the Hon Hai/Foxconn Technology Group, headquartered in Tucheng District, New Taipei City. The company is a substantial, identifiable manufacturer of electromechanical connectors, antennas, cables, and interconnect modules serving mobile devices, cloud/data-center infrastructure, and automotive electronics, and reported roughly USD 5.0 billion in FY2025 revenue; it also owns the Belkin and Voltaira consumer brands. IEEE's cached registry confirms two distinct MA-L (24-bit OUI) prefixes assigned to the company — 8C:CB:DF and EC:01:E2 — both anchored to the same Tucheng District registry address (postal code 23680), with only cosmetic formatting drift between the two organization-name/address strings (a trailing space, and "Zhongshan Road" vs "Chungshan Rd." romanization of the identical street). No matching rows were found in IEEE's MA-M (the IEEE MA-M registry) or MA-S (the IEEE MA-S registry) registries. Because the vendor holds multiple confirmed OUI assignments and is a public, product-identifiable manufacturer rather than a bare single-OUI shell registrant, this entry clears the abstain-on-shells bar for a finalized vendor page.
- Company identity
- Foxconn Interconnect Technology = FIT Hon Teng Limited (HKEX: 6088), subsidiary of Hon Hai/Foxconn Technology Group, HQ Tucheng District, New Taipei City, Taiwan [Confirmed] — https://www.foxconn.com/en-us/press-center/press-releases/latest-news/1834, https://www.investing.com/equities/foxconn-interconnect, https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/6088.HK/
- Company substance
- public company (~USD 5.0B FY2025 revenue), owns Belkin and Voltaira brands, distributed via Avnet/Future Electronics with a clear connector/antenna/cable/module product line — not a bare single-OUI shell [Confirmed] — https://www.avnet.com/americas/manufacturers/m/foxconn-interconnect-technology/, https://www.futureelectronics.com/m/foxconn-interconnect-technology
- Registry / block size
- MA-L (24-bit OUI); 2 confirmed prefixes (8C:CB:DF, EC:01:E2) read directly from cached IEEE the IEEE MA-L registry; zero matches in the IEEE MA-M registry (MA-M) or the IEEE MA-S registry (MA-S) [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry (lines 8584, 34232); corroborated independently by https://udger.com/resources/mac-address-vendor-detail?name=foxconn_interconnect_technology and https://maclookup.app/vendors/foxconn-interconnect-technology
- Registered address
- 66-1 Zhongshan/Chungshan Road, Tucheng District, New Taipei City, Taiwan, TW 23680 — identical across both prefixes aside from a trailing-space typo and street-name romanization [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry
- Registration dates
- Unknown / non-IEEE — IEEE's the IEEE MA-L registry schema (Registry, Assignment, Organization Name, Organization Address) has no date field; maclookup.app displays "2016-06-27" (EC:01:E2) and "2022-02-23" (8C:CB:DF) but these are third-party database artifacts, not IEEE-published facts, and are not recorded as authoritative dates[Unknown] — https://maclookup.app/vendors/foxconn-interconnect-technology
- Device type corroboration
- Unknown — no forum/community MAC-sighting source ties either prefix to a specific device class; a plausible but uncorroborated inference is embedded Wi-Fi/BT/interface modules integrated into OEM host hardware, paralleling other Foxconn-affiliate OUI entries already enrichment-DONE[Unknown] — https://www.netify.ai/resources/macs/brands/foxconn
- Security context
- no CVEs or device-level security advisories found tied to these two MAC prefixes; a general corporate data-breach report exists for the company but concerns exposed manufacturing/corporate IT systems, not networked-device security, so it is not used as device-security context here[Likely] — https://botcrawl.com/foxconn-interconnect-technology-data-breach/

- IANA reference
- not applicable to OUI/MA-L records; left blank per no-fabrication rule [Confirmed] — (no applicable field)
