TRANSWARE
MAC address prefix 00:40:9C is registered to TRANSWARE in the IEEE OUI registry. Any device whose MAC address begins with 00:40:9C has a network interface built by TRANSWARE. This prefix (the OUI, or Organizationally Unique Identifier) is assigned by the IEEE and is the first three octets of the address — it covers every MAC from 00:40:9C:00:00:00 to 00:40:9C:FF:FF:FF.

FAQ
- Which company owns MAC address prefix 00:40:9C?
- MAC address prefix 00:40:9C is registered to TRANSWARE in the IEEE Organizationally Unique Identifier (OUI) registry. Any device whose MAC address begins with 00:40:9C has a network interface built by TRANSWARE.
- What is the OUI 00:40:9C?
- 00:40:9C is an Organizationally Unique Identifier — the first three octets (24 bits) of a MAC address, assigned by the IEEE to TRANSWARE. It covers every address from 00:40:9C:00:00:00 to 00:40:9C:FF:FF:FF, or 16,777,216 addresses in total. It is also written 00-40-9C.
- How do I find the manufacturer of a MAC address?
- Take the first three octets of the address — in 00:40:9C:00:00:00 that is 00:40:9C — and look that prefix up in the IEEE OUI registry. If the second-lowest bit of the first octet is set, the address is locally administered (a randomized or private MAC), which belongs to no manufacturer and will not resolve; modern phones and laptops use these by default on each network.
- Where is TRANSWARE located?
- TRANSWARE is listed at 21, RUE DU 8 MAI 1945 FR in the IEEE OUI registry entry for 00:40:9C. This is the address the organization registered with the IEEE, which may differ from its current operating address.
