Mobiwire Mobiles (NingBo) Co., LTD — 10 prefixes (MA-L)

A MAC address starting with one of ten prefixes registered to Mobiwire Mobiles (NingBo) Co., LTD — including E4:FB:8F, 58:25:7A, E0:48:D3, and F8:ED:AE — belongs to a Chinese ODM mobile-device manufacturer, typically seen on white-label feature phones, smartphones, and payment terminals rather than end-user branded consumer electronics.

The company traces to Fenghua, Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, China, and is reported (Wikipedia, company-profile sources) to descend from Sagetel Mobiles / Ningbo Bird Sagem Electronics, recapitalized in 2011 out of the Sagem Wireless bankruptcy under MobiWire SAS (Nanterre, France). That Sino-French lineage is corroborating but not independently primary-sourced in this pass.

IEEE's cached MA-L registry (the IEEE MA-L registry) shows ten confirmed prefixes for this org across three name-spelling variants and two address formats, with no MA-M or MA-S entries — ten distinct block assignments is itself evidence of an active, ongoing manufacturer rather than a one-off shell registration.

Reported carrier/brand partners (Vodafone, Orange, SFR) and a relationship with Transsion Holdings appear in secondary sources but are not confirmed against a primary company or carrier source. No vendor-specific security advisories or incident history were found. The exact registrant string could not be cross-checked against the primary standards-oui.ieee.org text file in this pass — the fetch returned no match, most likely due to file-size truncation rather than genuine absence, since multiple independent third-party MAC databases (which normally source from the same IEEE list) agree with the cached CSV.

IEEE assignment

10 MA-L prefixes registered under three org-name spelling variants (MOBIWIRE MOBILES (NINGBO) CO.,LTD / MOBIWIRE MOBILES(NINGBO) CO.,LTD / Mobiwire Mobiles (NingBo) Co., LTD) and two address formats, all resolving to Fenghua, Ningbo, Zhejiang, China [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry (IEEE MA-L)

Registry / block size

MA-L; 10 confirmed prefixes for this org, no MA-M or MA-S entries found in the cached registry [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry. NOTE: IEEE publishes no assignment/registration date; third-party aggregator "date registered" values (maclookup.app, udger.com, itool.co — spanning 2016–2024) are database artifacts, not IEEE facts, and are not recorded here.

HQ / country

No.999 Dacheng (East) Road, Fenghua District/City, Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, China 315500, CN [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry

Primary-source cross-check

not independently confirmed against the standards-oui.ieee.org master text file in this pass (fetch returned no match, likely due to file-size truncation of the large registry rather than genuine absence); multiple independent third-party databases that normally source from the same IEEE list agree with the cached CSV
