MiXTelematics — 2 prefixes (MA-L)
Summary
- // what this is
- MiXTelematics is registered to MAC prefix
00:23:40and 1 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with00:23:40, that block was registered by MiXTelematics — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- MAC starting 00:23:40 or 40:2E:28 = genuine MiXTelematics-registered hardware (dedicated /24 ownership, not shared-base inference); does not extend to other ranges within 00:23:xx or 40:2E:xx.
About this vendor.
A MAC address starting with 00:23:40 or 40:2E:28 belongs to MiXTelematics, typically seen on in-vehicle telematics units, GPS/asset trackers, AI dashcams, or Electronic Logging Devices (ELDs) built by the fleet-management hardware maker now trading as MiX by Powerfleet.
Both prefixes are dedicated IEEE MA-L /24 blocks registered directly to "MiXTelematics," not shared bases like 70:B3:D5 — each is an exclusive ownership claim, confirmed by a live pull of the IEEE registration authority's the IEEE MA-L registry and cross-checked against Wireshark's manufacturer database and the macvendors.com API for 00:23:40.
MiX Telematics Limited was founded in 1996 and headquartered at Blaauwklip Office Park 2, Stellenbosch, Western Cape, South Africa — the exact address both OUI rows carry (one row lists "Cape Province," the other "Western Cape," a variant naming of the same location, not two addresses). The company was formerly dual-listed as NYSE: MIXT and JSE: MIX.
On 2024-04-02 MiX Telematics closed an all-stock business combination with PowerFleet, Inc., forming the combined entity Powerfleet (Nasdaq: AIOT); the legacy brand is now marketed regionally as "MiX by Powerfleet." This merger history, the matching HQ address across two independent OUI blocks, and a current, verifiable telematics-hardware product line together clear the bar for a substantive vendor entry rather than a bare single-OUI shell.
No CVE record for MiX Telematics or Powerfleet telematics hardware is found in CVE.org or NVD search as of an August 2026 search, and no malware or trojan association surfaced in general web search over the same window — an absence-of-evidence result from a search pass, not an exhaustive security audit.

- Registration date
- Not recorded — IEEE's public MA-L data publishes no assignment/registration date field, only registrant name and address; third-party "date" fields for these prefixes could not be retrieved from JS-rendered lookup tools, so none is asserted[Unknown] — the IEEE MA-L registry (columns: Registry, Assignment, Organization Name, Organization Address only)

- Notable products
- MiX fleet telematics platform, AI dashcams, ELDs
- Verified sample prefixes (both MA-L, MiXTelematics)
- 00:23:40, 40:2E:28 [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry 002340, the IEEE MA-L registry 402E28
- Registration date
- none published by IEEE for either prefix; not inferable from third-party tools (JS-rendered, no extractable date retrieved) [Unknown] — the IEEE MA-L registry
- Special note
- Neither prefix sits inside an IEEE-RA shared block (e.g. 70:B3:D5, 8C:1F:64); both are exclusive dedicated /24 assignments, so hardware bearing either prefix is directly MiXTelematics-registered, not an inference from a shared base[Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry 002340, the IEEE MA-L registry 402E28
- Related vendors
- Powerfleet, Inc. (post-merger parent, Nasdaq: AIOT)
- Analyst note
- A MAC starting 00:23:40 or 40:2E:28 indicates hardware registered specifically to MiXTelematics — each is a dedicated /24 block, not a shared-base inference — but this does not extend to any other 00:23:xx or 40:2E:xx range outside these two exact /24s, which belong to unrelated registrants.
