Kinpo Electronics, Inc. — MA-L prefix identification
Summary
- // what this is
- Kinpo Electronics is registered to MAC prefix
DC:D2:55and 1 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins withDC:D2:55, that block was registered by Kinpo Electronics — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- A matching address identifies an IEEE registry assignment, not a particular device, product, deployment, traffic prevalence, current vendor identity, or security state.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning DC:D2:55 or 00:01:E1 matches an IEEE MA-L assignment registered to Kinpo Electronics, Inc.; the match identifies the registry assignment, not a particular device or product. The supplied IEEE records list both assignments under the exact legal name and show TW in the registered address, indicating Taiwan.
Both prefixes are 24 bits long, so matching requires the first 24 address bits to equal the listed prefix. Each leaves 24 suffix bits, allowing 16,777,216 possible suffix values per prefix; that is a mathematical address-space size, not a count of devices or shipments. In both prefixes, the first octet has Group and Local bits clear. RFC 7042 describes these bits as significant in MAC addresses; changing either bit changes the literal prefix and therefore does not match this assignment.
The IEEE CSV lists two MA-L assignments for Kinpo Electronics, Inc. (DC:D2:55 and 00:01:E1). The available evidence does not establish assignment dates or company product and industry information.
