MAC address vendor

Vocollect Inc MAC prefixes: registry assignment identified; device unknown

Primary prefix
00:14:28
Block
MA-L

Summary

// what this is
Vocollect is registered to MAC prefix 00:14:28 and 1 more in the IEEE OUI database. When a device's MAC address begins with 00:14:28, that block was registered by Vocollect — the OUI identifies the maker of the network hardware, which is not always the brand on the device.

About this vendor.

Updated  ·  Confidence: High  ·  2 sources  ·  How this page is checked

A MAC address beginning with 00:14:28 or 8C:27:8A matches an IEEE MA-L assignment to Vocollect Inc; the supplied evidence does not identify a device category for either prefix. The IEEE records list the same legal name for both assignments and indicate the United States. No company product or industry information is supplied, so those details remain unknown.

Each prefix is 24 bits long and matches exactly the first three octets of a 48-bit MAC address. The remaining 24 bits allow 16,777,216 possible suffix values per prefix. That is a count of possible values, not a count of devices, shipments, or addresses observed in use.

For these exact prefixes, the Group and Local bits in the first octet are both zero: 00 for 00:14:28 and 8C for 8C:27:8A. RFC 7042 identifies these as the Group and Local bits and states that OUI and longer MAC prefix assignments have the Local bit zero and the Group bit unspecified. The supplied registry data lists both prefixes as MA-L assignments to Vocollect Inc.

A changed bit produces a different prefix; these assignments do not establish deployment, current vendor identity, or a particular product or device.
