smart-electronic GmbH MAC Prefixes: Registry Identification
Summary
- // what this is
- smart-electronic is registered to MAC prefix
A4:5A:1Cand 1 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins withA4:5A:1C, that block was registered by smart-electronic — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.
About this vendor.
A MAC address beginning with A4:5A:1C or 50:2A:7E matches an IEEE MA-L assignment to smart-electronic GmbH; the match does not identify a particular device. The supplied records list two assignments under organization names that differ in spelling.
Both prefixes are 24 bits long, leaving 24 bits after each fixed prefix. Interpreting the listed prefixes as hexadecimal gives each prefix a Group bit of 0 and a Local bit of 0. These bit values are fixed for an exact literal prefix match; changing either bit creates a different prefix. RFC 7042 describes the Group and Local bits and the structure of 48-bit MAC identifiers.
Each 24-bit suffix permits 16,777,216 possible values. That is a mathematical address-space count, not a count of devices, deployed addresses, shipments, or observed traffic. A match supports identifying the registry assignment only; the supplied evidence does not establish a device category, product mapping, or current vendor identity.
