Wistron Infocomm (Zhongshan) Corporation — 9 prefixes (MA-L)

Wistron Infocomm (Zhongshan) Corporation is the Zhongshan, Guangdong manufacturing subsidiary of Wistron Corporation (Taiwan Stock Exchange: 3231), one of the world's largest electronics ODMs. Nine MA-L prefixes appear in the IEEE registry under this org name, though with inconsistent capitalization and at least one typo variant ("InforComm"). Seven of the nine were cross-verified directly against the live IEEE Registration Authority API; the remaining two (20:6A:8A, F0:DE:F1) exist in the cached registry snapshot but carry a Kunshan address rather than Zhongshan and were not returned by the live query — an anomaly worth flagging rather than silently merging. Wistron's own 2025 investor filing confirms the Zhongshan entity was established 1997-10-28 with USD 234,000,000 in paid-in capital. As a contract ODM, the plant builds mainboards, graphics cards, desktops, servers, set-top boxes, optical drives, and does assembly/box-build work for game-console-related products for other companies' brands — so an OUI hit here identifies the manufacturing origin, not necessarily the shipping brand on the box. This is a genuinely separate legal entity from the similarly-named "Wistron InfoComn (Kunshan) Co., Ltd.", which holds its own distinct OUI registrations and vendor entry.

Registry / block size

MA-L only — 9 matching prefixes found in the cached IEEE registry; no MA-M or MA-S entries for this org family [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry, the IEEE MA-M registry, the IEEE MA-S registry (local cache)

Core confirmed prefixes (7 of 9, cross-verified live against IEEE RA API)

08:94:EF, F8:0F:41, 38:B7:25, 44:67:52, 98:EE:CB, 70:E2:84, F4:F1:9E — all addressed to Zhongshan Torch Development Zone / Cuiheng New District, Guangdong, China [Confirmed] — https://services13.ieee.org/RST/standards-ra-web/rest/assignments/?registry=MA-L&text=Wistron%20InfoComm(ZhongShan)

Anomalous prefixes (2 of 9, registry snapshot only)

20:6A:8A and F0:DE:F1 carry a Kunshan Export Processing Zone address in the IEEE MA-L registry despite the "Zhongshan" org name, and were not returned by the live IEEE text query — flagged as a possible registry data-quality artifact or a name collision with a related Kunshan entity, not fully confirmed as belonging to this exact legal registrant [Likely] — the IEEE MA-L registry, the IEEE MA-L registry; cross-checked (not confirmed) at https://maclookup.app/vendors/wistron-infocomm-zhongshan-corporation

Org-name variants on file

"Wistron Infocomm (Zhongshan) Corporation", "Wistron INFOCOMM (Zhongshan) CORPORATION", and a typo variant "Wistron InforComm (Zhongshan) Corporation" — same registrant, inconsistent capitalization/spelling across IEEE filings [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry

Registered address

No.38, East Keji Road, Zhongshan Torch Development Zone, Zhongshan City, Guangdong, China 528437 (majority of prefixes); also 15 Cuiwei Road, Cuiheng New District, Zhongshan 528400 and Torch High-tech Industrial Development Zone, Zhongshan 528437 on other assignments — all Zhongshan, Guangdong

[Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry

Excluded related entity

"Wistron InfoComn (Kunshan) Co., Ltd." (note distinct spelling "InfoComn") is a separate legal registrant at a different city (Kunshan, Jiangsu, not Zhongshan) with its own MA-L (C4:A1:0E) and MA-M assignments — not part of this entry [Confirmed] — the IEEE MA-L registry, the IEEE MA-M registry

Parent company

Wistron Corporation (Taiwan Stock Exchange: 3231), a major global ODM; the Zhongshan subsidiary was established 1997-10-28 with paid-in capital of USD 234,000,000 [Confirmed] — https://www.wistron.com/file/925ca240-f77c-4b4e-8526-c2791c072551/2025Q2_WHQG_En.pdf.pdf

Product / device context

ODM manufacturer of mainboards, graphics cards, desktop computers, servers, set-top boxes, and optical (DVD/CD-ROM) drives, plus assembly/integration/testing/box-build for game-console-related products for international clients — a contract manufacturer whose end products typically ship under other companies' brands [Likely] — https://www.importinfo.com/wistron-infocomm-zhongshan-corp, https://www.dnb.com/business-directory/company-profiles.wistron_infocomm_(zhongshan)_corporation.c97ff4a7641cde5803a3867a7cbbed15.html

Company status

active, corroborated by Bloomberg (WISTRZ:CH), D&B business directory, and ImportYeti trade-manifest data (~29,111 bills of lading, May 2012–Jul 2026) at the same Zhongshan Torch Development Zone address used in the IEEE filings

Registration / assignment dates

Unknown — IEEE's public MA-L data (the IEEE MA-L registry: Registry, Assignment, Organization Name, Organization Address) publishes no date column for any of these prefixes. Third-party "date registered" values on maclookup.app / alldatafeeds (e.g. 2010-04-11, 2013-06-20, 2014-10-25, 2015-11-17, 2021-03-23) are database artifacts, not IEEE-published facts, and must not be recorded as verified

[Confirmed as Unknown] — https://maclookup.app/vendors/wistron-infocomm-zhongshan-corporation

IANA reference

not applicable (IEEE MA-L, not an IANA-delegated resource) — left blank

Security context

no CVEs, security advisories, or incident reports found specific to hardware manufactured by this entity; as a contract ODM building for other brands, device-level security posture is not attributable to this OUI owner the way it would be for a branded vendor with its own firmware

[Unknown] — no source found

Company substance verdict

substantive — identifiable, real Wistron Corporation subsidiary (incorporated 1997, USD 234M capital) with concrete product/device context (mainboards, GPUs, desktops, servers, STBs, optical drives, game-console assembly) and 7 directly IEEE-confirmed OUI assignments — clears the abstain-on-shells bar for a bare single-OUI registration [Confirmed] — https://services13.ieee.org/RST/standards-ra-web/rest/assignments/?registry=MA-L&text=Wistron%20InfoComm(ZhongShan), https://www.wistron.com/file/925ca240-f77c-4b4e-8526-c2791c072551/2025Q2_WHQG_En.pdf.pdf
