Vantiva holds 123 MA-L OUI blocks, registered across a cluster of related entity names — chiefly "Vantiva USA LLC" plus a family of "Vantiva Connected Home" units (Technologies Telco, Home Networks, Subcomponents, Orange Belgium) and "Vantiva Technologies Belgium." Vantiva SA is the French multinational that emerged when Technicolor SA renamed itself on September 27, 2022, following the spin-off of Technicolor Creative Studios; the lineage runs back through Thomson SA and the original Compagnie Française Thomson-Houston (1893). The company is one of the largest global suppliers of broadband and video customer-premises equipment (CPE): DOCSIS and fiber gateways, 5G fixed-wireless-access units, Wi-Fi extenders, and AndroidTV/RDK/Linux set-top boxes, sold to 350+ network service providers rather than to retail consumers. Because of that channel, a Vantiva OUI on a network almost always identifies an ISP-provisioned home gateway or set-top box — its traffic is expected to be DHCP/DNS/routing from a residential or SMB broadband line, or video streaming from a STB. The multiple registrant names reflect internal business units registering blocks under their own labels, not separate companies. The standard OUI caveat applies: any "date registered" shown by third-party MAC-lookup tools (e.g. maclookup.app) is a database artifact — IEEE publishes no registration dates for MA-L assignments, and the cached oui.csv has no date column. Historical CVE exposure for this hardware lives under the prior "Technicolor" vendor name in NVD/CVEdetails; no critical actively-exploited CVE was surfaced under the post-rebrand "Vantiva" name in this pass.
- IEEE assignment
- 123 MA-L prefixes → Vantiva entities, primary registrant "Vantiva USA LLC" [Confirmed] — IEEE MA-L (enrichment/registries/oui.csv)
- Registry / block size
- MA-L (24-bit OUI); all 123 assignments are MA-L class; no MA-M or MA-S blocks (zero hits in mam.csv / oui36.csv) [Confirmed] — IEEE MA-L (enrichment/registries/oui.csv). NOTE: IEEE publishes NO assignment/registration date; any "date registered" on third-party tools (e.g. maclookup.app "2010-11-24" for 80:C6:AB) is a database artifact, not an IEEE fact.

- Security context
- historical CVEs exist under prior "Technicolor" name (e.g. CVE-2018-15907, DISPUTED, CVSS 6.5, MAC-flooding DoS on TC8305C gateway; TD5130v2 command injection; TC7300 XSS). No critical actively-exploited CVE surfaced under post-rebrand "Vantiva" name in this pass. [Likely] — https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-15907, https://www.cvedetails.com/vendor/35221/Vantiva.html (CVEdetails returned HTTP 403 on direct fetch)
- Allocated date
- Unknown — IEEE publishes no MA-L registration dates; no date field in cached oui.csv [Confirmed null] — IEEE MA-L
- Analyst note
- A Vantiva OUI almost always identifies an ISP-provisioned broadband gateway or set-top box, indicating a residential/SMB subscriber on an ISP-supplied device rather than a self-purchased consumer product.
