Jiangsu Huitong Group Co.,Ltd. — 6 prefixes (MA-L)
Summary
- // what this is
- Jiangsu Huitong Group is registered to MAC prefix
08:EB:29and 5 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with08:EB:29, that block was registered by Jiangsu Huitong Group — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- A MAC across these 6 prefixes reliably identifies Jiangsu Huitong Group hardware. Its product lines (remote controls, smart-home modules, automotive ECUs, HID modules) are consistent with embedded control devices that could carry a wireless radio, but no teardown or vendor statement confirms a specific shipped model against these OUIs.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning with 08:EB:29, 94:C7:A8, 18:BF:1C, C0:5D:39, 40:E1:71, or A8:42:A7 identifies hardware built by Jiangsu Huitong Group Co.,Ltd., a Chinese manufacturer of embedded consumer-electronics and automotive control modules headquartered in Zhenjiang, Jiangsu. The company holds six separate MA-L (24-bit) OUI blocks under one consistent legal name and registered address, a multi-OUI footprint that itself signals an operating manufacturer rather than a one-off registration.
Jiangsu Huitong traces its manufacturing history to 1958 and was reorganized into its current form in 1994 from the former Zhenjiang Connector General Factory. It carries a National Torch Program Key high-tech Enterprise designation and Jiangsu provincial high-tech enterprise status, plus ISO9001, ISO14001, IECQ-QC080000, and IATF16949 process certifications alongside CE, GS, UL, FCC, and 3C product certifications.
Its product lines are embedded control and human-interface modules: smart remote controls, smart-home controllers and key modules, backlight modules, automotive ECUs, lighting electronics, and HID modules built into TVs, set-top boxes, air conditioners, automotive systems, Blu-ray players, and audio gear. The company's own materials do not explicitly describe a Wi-Fi or Bluetooth product line, so the link from these OUIs to a specific networked device model is inferential, not a direct vendor claim.
No CVEs, security advisories, or known-exploited-device reports were found for the company or the two OUIs (A8:42:A7, 08:EB:29) individually indexed by third-party MAC lookup tools — an absence of findings, not a confirmed clean record. A third-party site lists a 2020 "registered on" date for A8:42:A7; IEEE itself publishes no assignment dates, so that figure is a database artifact and is not recorded here as fact.
