What Silicon Labs makes

Its chips handle Zigbee, Z-Wave, Thread, Matter, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi in smart-home hubs, sensors, locks, bulbs and switches. It bought Redpine Signals' Wi-Fi and Bluetooth business in 2020.

What the device on your network probably is

Most likely a smart-home hub or bridge, or a Wi-Fi smart-home device such as a lock, sensor or switch. Zigbee, Z-Wave and Thread devices do not join Wi-Fi at all, so what you see is usually the hub or a Wi-Fi device.

How to work out which device it is

Check the device information pages of your smart-home hub and Wi-Fi gadgets for a matching MAC address. Unplug the hub or suspect devices one at a time.

Should you be worried

Nothing to worry about: this is normally part of your own smart-home setup. The name says who made the chip, not which product it is in.

ON YOUR PHONE · LAN SCAN

The app finds every device on the Wi-Fi you are on, at home or in a rental, and puts the vendor next to the hostname, the services it advertises and its open ports, which together usually name the product. Where it cannot tell, it says so instead of guessing. Get RECON for iPhone — one-time purchase, no account, nothing leaves the device.
