Tongfang holds about 2 IEEE blocks registered as "Tongfang computer co.Ltd." in Beijing, China, spanning MA-L (24-bit) and MA-M (28-bit). Verified samples include 98:5F:4F (MA-L) and an MA-M block beginning 10:07:23. These OUIs appear on desktop and laptop PCs, electronics assembled for other brands, and some networking and IoT gear. Tongfang is associated with Tsinghua Holdings and Tsinghua Tongfang (THTF), and is a known ODM source for Clevo-style barebones laptops. This is an EMS/ODM "OUI ≠ brand" case: a Tongfang OUI can appear on a device sold under another brand or on Tongfang-branded PCs. Its Tsinghua lineage is an interesting cross-reference to the New H3C / Unigroup corporate family documented in a prior batch. For triage, a Tongfang OUI usually indicates a PC or ODM-built laptop, and the retail brand may differ from "Tongfang."
