MAC address vendor

NR ELECTRIC CO., LTD MAC prefixes: device identity unknown

Primary prefix
B4:4C:C2
Block
MA-L

Summary

// what this is
NR Electric is registered to MAC prefix B4:4C:C2 and 1 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with B4:4C:C2, that block was registered by NR Electric — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.

A MAC address beginning with B4:4C:C2 or 2C:60:CD matches an IEEE registry assignment to NR ELECTRIC CO., LTD; the available evidence does not identify a device category using either prefix. The match identifies the registered prefix, not a specific device, operating system, current legal identity, or security state.

Both assignments are MA-L 24-bit prefixes. Each leaves 24 bits for suffix values, giving 16,777,216 possible suffix values per prefix. This is a mathematical range, not a count of devices or shipments. Both prefixes have Group bit 0 and Local bit 0 in their first byte, consistent with individual and globally administered addresses. Changing either bit changes the prefix and is not variation within these fixed assignments.

NR Electric's official catalog covers protection, automation and control, HVDC and FACTS, and renewable energy and microgrid products. It lists products such as the PCS-9700 Automation System, PCS-9700 Renewable Energy SCADA, and PCS-9580 Static Var Compensator. The catalog establishes company product context, but does not map any product to these prefixes. For identification, compare the complete first three bytes against the assignments; a matching prefix alone cannot establish the device model.
