Point Grey Research Inc. MAC prefixes: device identity Unknown
Summary
- // what this is
- Point Grey Research is registered to MAC prefix
00:B0:9Dand 1 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with00:B0:9D, that block was registered by Point Grey Research — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- A matching prefix supports identification of the IEEE registry assignment only; it does not establish a device or product mapping, deployment, traffic prevalence, current vendor identity, or security status. Both prefixes are 24 bits long with 24 suffix bits (16,777,216 possible suffix values each). Their first-octet Group and Local bits are both zero; setting either bit changes the prefix.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning with 00:B0:9D or 2C:DD:A3 identifies an IEEE MA-L assignment to Point Grey Research Inc.; the assignment alone does not identify a device, product, or device category. No supplied evidence maps either prefix to a specific device type or product.
The IEEE record lists two 24-bit prefixes for the same legal name and gives Canada (CA) as the country indication. Each leaves 24 bits for suffix values, or 16,777,216 possible values; this is address-space capacity, not a count of devices or shipments. The listed records contain no assignment dates.
RFC 7042 explains that the first octet carries Group and Local bits. For both listed prefixes, those bits are zero: 00 has both clear, and 2C (00101100) has bit 0 and bit 1 clear. These values are fixed for an exact prefix match. Changing either bit changes the prefix; variations within the 24-bit suffix do not change the assigned prefix.
A captured matching address supports the registry-assignment identification only; it does not establish deployment, prevalence, present vendor identity, or security status.
