Shinwa Industries(China) Ltd. — 2 prefixes (MA-L)
Summary
- // what this is
- Shinwa Industries is registered to MAC prefix
88:E0:34and 1 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with88:E0:34, that block was registered by Shinwa Industries — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- A Shinwa OUI = embedded BLE/Wi-Fi module inside a car head unit, dashcam, baby monitor, or smart-home device; identify the host product. No CVEs found; firmware security posture is owned by the integrating OEM, not Shinwa.
About this vendor.
Shinwa Industries(China) Ltd. holds two IEEE MA-L assignments — 88:E0:34 and 00:1D:86 — both registered to the same Huizhou, Guangdong manufacturer in China (postcode 516006), making this a small consolidated multi-OUI vendor rather than a single-block entry. The company is a contract/ODM electronics maker founded in 1986 as a China–Hong Kong–Japan joint venture; its older business centered on CD/DVD drive mechanisms and car-audio components, but it has pivoted substantially toward embedded wireless: Bluetooth Low Energy modules, Wi-Fi modules, and IoT connectivity modules built around Qualcomm (QCA1023, QCA6574, QCA6595) and Realtek (RTL8821CS) chipsets, plus automotive electronics and baby-monitor cameras. For network-asset work, the practical reading is that a Shinwa OUI almost never indicates a standalone networking appliance — it points to an embedded wireless module living inside a host product such as a car head unit, dashcam, baby monitor, or smart-home device, where the firmware security posture is owned by the integrating OEM, not by Shinwa. The company has roughly 12 FCC ID grants (grantee codes ZWY and UF2) spanning 2007–2024; the earliest, FCC ID UF2BT8028 dated 2007-03-14, is a lower bound on its wireless product history but is NOT an OUI registration date. Note also a separate "SHINWA INDUSTRIES, INC." MA-S entry (Tokyo, Japan) — the parent/affiliate, a different legal name and country, deliberately excluded from this slug's scope.
- IEEE assignment

- Security notes
- ODM/contract wireless-module supplier; a Shinwa OUI most likely indicates an embedded BLE/Wi-Fi module inside a car head unit, dashcam, baby monitor, or smart-home device, not a standalone appliance. No CVEs or public security incidents specific to Shinwa were found; firmware security posture depends on the integrating product OEM, not Shinwa.[Likely] — fcc.report, shinwa.com.cn
- Analyst note
- For asset classification, treat a Shinwa OUI as "embedded wireless module — identify the host product, not Shinwa" rather than a network device in its own right.
