Luxshare — multiple entities (MA-L + MA-M); EMS/ODM, OUI ≠ brand on the box
Summary
- // what this is
- Luxshare Precision Industry is registered to MAC prefix
10:82:86and 7 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with10:82:86, that block was registered by Luxshare Precision Industry — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- A Luxshare OUI usually means a Luxshare-assembled device — but the consumer brand on the box is very often something else (frequently Apple). Treat as a contract-manufactured device, not a brand identification.
About this vendor.
Luxshare's MAC footprint spans several IEEE registrant strings that should be aliased to one family: "Luxshare Precision Industry Co., Ltd" and "Luxshare Precision Industry Company Limited" (~6 blocks combined), plus "LUXSHARE-ICT Co., Ltd." and "LUXSHARE – ICT (NGHE AN) LIMITED" (Vietnam), for roughly 8 blocks across all entities. Verified samples include 10:82:86, 60:7D:09, 3C:18:A0, and 60:6D:3C (MA-L), plus the MA-M sub-block 08:3C:03:A/28. The registered addresses are in Shenzhen/Dongguan, Guangdong, China (with the Nghe An entity in Vietnam). These OUIs appear on AirPods and other earbuds, smartphones, connectors, cables, wearables, and IoT assembled for other brands. Luxshare is a major Apple supplier (AirPods and iPhone assembly) and acquired Wistron's Kunshan, China iPhone assembly operation around 2020–2021. This is a classic EMS/ODM "OUI ≠ brand" case, like Foxconn or BYD Electronic — a Luxshare OUI may appear on a device sold under another brand, frequently Apple. For triage, a Luxshare OUI in ARP/DHCP tables usually means a Luxshare-assembled device, but the consumer brand on the box is very often something else, so treat it as a contract-manufactured device rather than a brand identification.
- IEEE assignment
- multiple entities — "Luxshare Precision Industry Co., Ltd" / "Luxshare Precision Industry Company Limited" (~6), "LUXSHARE-ICT Co., Ltd.", "LUXSHARE – ICT (NGHE AN) LIMITED" (Vietnam); ~8 across all [Confirmed] — IEEE MA-L/MA-M

- Verified prefix sample
- 10:82:86, 60:7D:09, 3C:18:A0, 60:6D:3C (MA-L); 08:3C:03:A/28 (MA-M sub-block) [Confirmed] — maclookup.app
- Special note
- Classic EMS/ODM "OUI ≠ brand" case (like Foxconn/BYD Electronic). A Luxshare OUI may appear on a device sold under another brand, frequently Apple. 08:3C:03 is a shared IEEE MA-M base range (the IEEE Registration Authority is its MA-L holder); only the assigned /28 sub-block 08:3C:03:A belongs to Luxshare, not the whole base OUI. The IEEE registry publishes no assignment dates, so none is stated here. [Confirmed]
