MAC address vendor

Sector Alarm Tech S.L. MAC prefixes: device identification Unknown

Primary prefix
F8:D0:C5
Block
MA-L

Summary

// what this is
Sector Alarm Tech S.L is registered to MAC prefix F8:D0:C5 and 1 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with F8:D0:C5, that block was registered by Sector Alarm Tech S.L — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
// analyst note
Each prefix is 24 bits, leaving 24 suffix bits and 16,777,216 possible suffix values; these are address-space possibilities, not device or shipment counts. Both have first-byte Group bit 0 and Local bit 0. Changing either bit yields a different prefix, and an exact match identifies the registry assignment only.

About this vendor.

Updated  ·  Confidence: High  ·  2 sources  ·  How this page is checked

A MAC address beginning with F8:D0:C5 or 7C:99:46 identifies an IEEE MA-L assignment to Sector Alarm Tech S.L.; the supplied evidence does not identify a device type or product using either prefix. A prefix match identifies the registered assignment, not a particular device, operating system, current company identity, or security state.

Both records are 24-bit prefixes, leaving 24 bits for suffix values. For each, the first-byte Group bit is 0 and Local bit is 0. These fixed values characterize the literal assigned prefixes; changing either bit produces a different prefix. The 16,777,216 possible suffix values per prefix are address-space possibilities, not counts of devices or shipments.

RFC 7042 explains that EUI-48 identifiers combine an initial OUI or other assigned prefix with additional bits, and describes Group and Local bit significance. A captured address can support a match to one of these assignments when its first three octets match exactly; it cannot establish deployment or prevalence. Assignment dates are unavailable in these IEEE CSV records.

Device or vendor
Sector Alarm Tech S.L. is the registry assignee; device category and product mapping are Unknown.
Matching prefixes
F8:D0:C5 and 7C:99:46 (MA-L).
Interpretation
Each is an exact 24-bit prefix with Group bit 0 and Local bit 0; each allows 24 suffix bits.
Limits
A prefix match identifies the assignment only, not an individual device or deployment.
