MAC address vendor

Shenzhen Honesty Electronics Co.,Ltd. — 5 prefixes (MA-L)

Primary prefix
70:99:1C
Block
MA-L
Status
Active

Summary

// what this is
Shenzhen Honesty Electronics is registered to MAC prefix 70:99:1C and 4 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with 70:99:1C, that block was registered by Shenzhen Honesty Electronics — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
// analyst note
Treat as a genuine device manufacturer, not a shell registration; the entity-name split across IEEE vs. FCC/marketplace sources is an open thread, not a contradiction.

About this vendor.

Updated  ·  Confidence: Medium

Shenzhen Honesty Electronics Co.,Ltd. holds five MA-L OUI blocks registered to a Longgang District, Shenzhen address, which puts it well above the bare single-OUI shell threshold — a company that has drawn five distinct IEEE allocations is doing enough device manufacturing to need them. Web research corroborates that this is a real, operating consumer-electronics manufacturer: storefront listings describe a company founded around 1998 with roughly 200 staff making feature phones, tablet PCs, MP3/MP4 players, Bluetooth speaker and headset modules, and PC peripherals, and an FCC grantee code (2ACIC) ties several named wireless models (A59W, HQ6500, Wi-Note P5, ZUUM P50) to the same trade name. The one open thread is an entity-naming mismatch: the IEEE registrant string is "Shenzhen Honesty Electronics Co.,Ltd." at a Longgang/Chitat Industrial Park address, while the FCC filings and marketplace listings describe "Shenzhen Honesty Electronic Technology Co.,Ltd." at a Futian District address. These read as the same company operating under a slightly different trade name and filing address across registries — common for Shenzhen contract manufacturers — but no single source explicitly bridges the two names, so that link is recorded as Unknown rather than asserted as fact. No vendor-specific security advisories or CVEs were found; unrelated Shenzhen-manufacturer incidents (Tenda, Alldocube/Keenadu) surfaced in searches but do not implicate this vendor.

IEEE assignment
5 MA-L prefixes → Shenzhen Honesty Electronics Co.,Ltd., Longgang District, Guangdong, CN [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry lines 9237, 16501, 17974, 24160, 39064
Registry / block size
MA-L only (24-bit OUI); no matching MA-M or MA-S rows found for this org [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-M registry, the IEEE MA-S registry (zero matches)
HQ / registered address
5/F, Zone B, Chitat Industrial Park, West Longping Road, Longgang District, Shenzhen City, Guangdong, CN 518172 [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry (4 of 5 rows; the 70:99:1C row has the same address in slightly different word order, no trailing period on the org name)
[Likely for the exact-formatting variance] — the IEEE MA-L registry
Verified prefixes (all MA-L, same registrant family)
70:99:1C, 7C:6C:E1, 90:F2:60, F8:5C:7D, F8:5C:7E [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry
Registration date
Unknown / not published — IEEE's MA-L export carries no assignment-date field; no date is attributed to IEEE for this vendor [Confirmed]
Company status / substance
active consumer-electronics manufacturer, founded ~1998, ~200 staff — beyond a bare registration, corroborated by five separate OUI blocks plus marketplace and FCC filings [Likely] — https://hkhonesty.en.alibaba.com/, https://device.report/shenzhen-honesty-electronics
Device types
feature/mobile phones, tablet PCs, MP3/MP4 players, Bluetooth speaker/headset modules, PC peripherals [Likely] — https://hkhonesty.en.alibaba.com/, https://device.report/shenzhen-honesty-electronics
FCC filings
grantee code 2ACIC; named models include A59W, HQ6500, Wi-Note P5, ZUUM P50 [Likely] — https://fccid.io/2ACIC, https://fcc.report/FCC-ID/2ACICP5/2344207.pdf
Entity-name / address ambiguity
IEEE registrant "Shenzhen Honesty Electronics Co.,Ltd." (Longgang District) vs. the FCC/marketplace entity "Shenzhen Honesty Electronic Technology Co.,Ltd." (Futian District) — very likely the same company under a variant trade name, but no single primary source explicitly ties both names together
[Unknown] — https://device.report/shenzhen-honesty-electronics, https://fccid.io/2ACIC
Security context
no CVEs, advisories, or backdoor reports found specific to this vendor; searches surfaced only unrelated Shenzhen-manufacturer incidents (Tenda routers, Alldocube/Keenadu tablet firmware) [Unknown — absence of findings, not a clean-bill confirmation]
