MAC address vendor

MVSilicon (Shanghai Mountain View Silicon) — Bluetooth-audio SoC maker

Primary prefix
1C:2C:E0
Block
MA-L
Status
Active

Summary

// what this is
Shanghai Mountain View Silicon is registered to MAC prefix 1C:2C:E0 in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with 1C:2C:E0, that block was registered by Shanghai Mountain View Silicon — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
// analyst note
A TWS earbud or BT speaker built on MVSilicon silicon may show the end-brand's or a randomized BT address; check device behavior alongside the OUI.

About this vendor.

Updated  ·  Confidence: Medium

Shanghai Mountain View Silicon (MVSilicon) is an active Chinese fabless Bluetooth-audio SoC maker registered with the IEEE as "Shanghai Mountain View Silicon" at Suite 4C, Building 3, 1238 Zhangjiang Rd., Pudong, Shanghai, China. Its silicon goes into TWS earbuds, Bluetooth speakers, audio receivers, and smart-audio devices. Budget BT-audio SoCs may have their Bluetooth device addresses allocated by the OEM brand or randomized rather than drawn from the chipmaker's registered block. For triage, a TWS earbud or BT speaker built on MVSilicon silicon may show the end-brand's or a randomized BT address — the MVSilicon OUI (1C:2C:E0) should be checked in context.
