Hisense Electric Co.,Ltd — 4 prefixes (MA-L)

A MAC address beginning with 18:30:0C, 38:F5:54, 5C:34:00, or A8:82:00 belongs to Hisense Electric Co.,Ltd, the Qingdao-based entity within China's Hisense Group — most plausibly a Hisense-branded television or other consumer device, though the exact product line is not independently confirmed for this specific registrant.

IEEE's own registry data lists four MA-L (24-bit) blocks under the exact name "Hisense Electric Co.,Ltd" / "HISENSE ELECTRIC CO.,LTD", all sharing the same Qingdao, Shandong registered address. That multi-prefix footprint, plus independent corroboration from three third-party OUI aggregators on the same registrant name and address, is what distinguishes this entry from a bare single-OUI shell registration.

Hisense Electric is part of the wider, well-documented Hisense Group — a Chinese multinational consumer-electronics maker founded in 1969, rebranded Hisense in 1993, and a leading TV manufacturer in China since 2004. Several sibling entities (Hisense Visual Technology, Hisense Broadband Multimedia Technology, Qingdao Hisense Communications, Hisense Mobile Communications) hold separate OUI registrations, suggesting router, set-top-box, and mobile hardware are split across other registrant names rather than this one.

Third-party lookup tools (e.g. maclookup.app) list per-prefix "registration dates" for these blocks (2017–2020). These are database artifacts generated by the aggregator, not facts published by IEEE — the IEEE OUI registry itself carries no assignment-date column, so no registration date is recorded here as an IEEE fact.

IEEE assignment

4 MA-L blocks → "Hisense Electric Co.,Ltd" / "HISENSE ELECTRIC CO.,LTD" — 18:30:0C, 38:F5:54, 5C:34:00, A8:82:00 [Confirmed] — IEEE the IEEE MA-L registry

Registry / block size

MA-L (24-bit OUI), 4 blocks; none in the MA-M or MA-S (OUI-36) registries [Confirmed] — IEEE the IEEE MA-L registry, the IEEE MA-M registry, the IEEE MA-S registry

HQ / country

Device types

consumer electronics, most plausibly Hisense-branded televisions; device attribution below the parent-group level is an inference from the brand's product line, not confirmed per prefix [Likely] — https://allabouthisense.com/how-to-find-mac-address-on-hisense-tv/

Registration date

Unknown — the IEEE OUI registry publishes no assignment-date column; the per-prefix 2017–2020 "registration dates" carried by third-party lookup tools are aggregator database artifacts and must not be shown as IEEE facts

Qingdao Hisense Communications Co., Ltd.; HISENSE VISUAL TECHNOLOGY CO.,LTD; Hisense Broadband Multimedia Technology Co., Ltd.; Hisense Home Appliances Group Co., Ltd. Qingdao Branch; Hisense Mobile Communications Technology Co., Ltd. — sibling Hisense Group registrants holding their own, disjoint OUI blocks

[Confirmed] — IEEE the IEEE MA-L registry

Analyst note

substantial, identifiable registrant rather than a bare single-OUI shell — four MA-L blocks under one registrant name at one Qingdao address, corroborated by three independent third-party aggregators, and tied to the well-documented Hisense Group. Router, set-top-box and mobile hardware attribution most likely sits under the sibling registrant names rather than this one.
