What this means
The IEEE assigned the MA-L block 7C5C8D to EM Microelectronic. 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 7C:5C:8D, it is EM Microelectronic hardware.
