Unionman Technology Co., Ltd. — 12 prefixes (MA-L)
Summary
- // what this is
- Unionman Technology is registered to MAC prefix
08:9C:74and 11 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with08:9C:74, that block was registered by Unionman Technology — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device. - // analyst note
- A Unionman OUI on a globally-administered address = genuine Unionman-built carrier/edge hardware (set-top boxes, gateways, modules), often operator-supplied CPE. Don't treat third-party 'registration date' as an IEEE fact.
About this vendor.
Unionman Technology Co., Ltd. (Chinese: 广东九联科技股份有限公司; also rendered 九联科技) is a Huizhou, Guangdong-based hardware manufacturer that holds 12 MA-L (24-bit OUI) blocks, all registered to the same factory address in the Huinan High-Tech Park. Founded in November 2001, the company listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange STAR Market (科创板, stock code 688609) in March 2021, which makes it an unusually well-documented OUI holder for a Chinese device maker. Its product line is squarely network-edge consumer and carrier hardware: smart network set-top boxes (OTT/IPTV/DVB), GPON/ONU smart home gateways, converged home gateways, smart routers, NB-IoT and LTE cellular IoT modules, 25G fronthaul optical modules, smart cameras, and HarmonyOS/AI edge-computing boards. Its primary customers are Chinese telecom operators, with export sales into South America, the Middle East, Europe, and the United States. One caveat worth recording for security context: Chinese Android set-top boxes as a class have been implicated in botnet campaigns (BadBox, Vo1d), but no public report as of June 2026 names Unionman/九联科技 devices specifically, and the company's operator-channel distribution differs materially from the gray-market off-brand vendors most often affected — so any such association is sector-level inference, not a Unionman-specific finding.
- IEEE assignment
- 12 prefixes → UNIONMAN TECHNOLOGY CO.,LTD, registered Huizhou, Guangdong, CN [Confirmed] — IEEE MA-L (local cached IEEE registry)
- Registry / block size
- MA-L (24-bit OUI); 12 IEEE prefixes; no MA-M (the IEEE MA-M registry) or MA-S (the IEEE MA-S registry) entries found [Confirmed] — IEEE MA-L / this site's own enrichment records NOTE: IEEE's public OUI data publishes NO assignment/registration date; any "date registered" on third-party MAC tools (the maclookup.app range Feb 2023–Dec 2025) is a database artifact, not an IEEE fact.

- Security context
- No CVEs or named vulnerabilities attributed specifically to Unionman products found in NVD/security sources as of June 2026. Sector-level: Chinese Android STBs have been tied to BadBox/Vo1d/Kimwolf botnets, but none of those reports name Unionman; operator-channel distribution differs from the gray-market vendors implicated. No specific threat attribution confirmed.[Likely] — krebsonsecurity.com, hothardware.com
