Quanta holds 20 MA-L blocks registered as "Quanta Computer Inc." (HQ in Taoyuan/Guishan, Taiwan). Verified samples include 00:C0:9F, 00:16:36, 00:1B:24, 00:1E:68, C8:0A:A9, and 2C:60:0C. These OUIs appear on laptops/notebooks (Quanta is the world's largest notebook ODM, building for many major brands) and on hyperscale/cloud data-center servers through its Quanta Cloud Technology (QCT) arm. A related entity, "Quanta Storage Inc.," exists separately. The key analyst point is the ODM pattern: a Quanta OUI commonly appears on laptops and servers sold under other brands. For triage, a Quanta OUI on a server in a data center is very likely a QCT/Quanta-built machine (possibly white-box or rebranded), while on a laptop it may be a Quanta-built unit sold under a major consumer brand — so classify by role and DHCP fingerprint rather than assuming a Quanta-brand device.
