What this means
The IEEE assigned the MA-L block 10CABF to Texas Instruments. Every network interface they manufacture under this block has a MAC address beginning with these digits, followed by a unique per-device identifier. If a device on your network shows a MAC starting 10:CA:BF, it is Texas Instruments hardware.
