Jupiter Systems — 18:66:F0 (MA-L)
Summary
- // what this is
- Jupiter Systems is registered to MAC prefix
18:66:F0in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with18:66:F0, that block was registered by Jupiter Systems — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- A well-documented, actively operating manufacturer with named product lines plus a high-profile CFIUS divestment order and DOJ-initiated federal receivership confirms genuine company substance beyond the bare IEEE registration, despite this entry covering only a single MA-L block under this exact org-name spelling.
About this vendor.
Jupiter Systems is a Hayward, California manufacturer of video-wall and control-room visualization hardware — the Catalyst, J-Series, PixelNet, and StreamPoint processor/controller families plus the Canvas collaborative-visualization software — sold into command-center, broadcast, and enterprise-collaboration markets. IEEE's the IEEE MA-L registry carries exactly one MA-L block under this precise organization name, 18:66:F0, registered to "Jupiter Systems" at 31015 Huntwood Ave, Hayward, CA. A second, textually similar registrant, "JUPITER SYSTEMS, INC." (00:80:09, San Leandro, CA), is a legally distinct entity per its ", INC." suffix and is deliberately excluded from this entry — it slugs separately as vendor-jupiter-systems-inc, matching the site's existing convention (e.g., "HP Inc." maps to vendor-hp-inc, not vendor-hp). What elevates this single-block registrant well above a shell registration is an unusually well-documented corporate history and an active federal national-security dispute: founded in 1981, acquired by InFocus Corporation in 2015, then by Hong Kong-based Suirui International in February 2020, apparently without CFIUS notification at the time. CFIUS opened a review in March 2024; a July 8, 2025 presidential Section 721 (Defense Production Act) order found the 2020 acquisition a national-security threat and ordered divestment; Suirui/Jupiter missed the (twice-extended) deadline, prompting the Justice Department's first-ever enforcement suit under that authority and, on May 26, 2026, a federal court granted a preliminary injunction and appointed a receiver over Jupiter pending litigation. No device-level firmware vulnerabilities were found for Jupiter hardware in this research — the live, sourced risk here is corporate ownership and national security, not a device CVE.

- Unknown — IEEE's public the IEEE MA-L registry has no assignment/registration-date column at all; no third-party "date registered" scrape is attributed to IEEE here [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry
- Excluded distinct entity
- "JUPITER SYSTEMS, INC." (00:80:09, San Leandro, CA) is a separate legal entity (", INC." suffix); would slug as vendor-jupiter-systems-inc per existing site convention, so it is out of scope for this entry [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry

- National-security / CFIUS context
- CFIUS review opened March 2024; July 8, 2025 presidential Section 721 (Defense Production Act) order found the 2020 Suirui-Jupiter transaction a national-security threat and ordered divestment within 120 days; deadline twice extended and missed; DOJ filed the first-ever enforcement suit under this authority; May 26, 2026 a federal court granted a preliminary injunction and appointed a receiver over Jupiter pending litigation. This is a corporate-ownership/national-security matter, not a device firmware CVE — none was found for Jupiter hardware.
