“Using this for a dorm room. The university requires all devices on Ethernet to be registered and supply a MAC address. Does this splitter have a MAC address such that it needs to be registered in order for the other connected devices to connect?”

• it has a model number and serial number. Since this is doing nothing more than splitting a signal, it isn't a device that needs a MAC address.

• The MAC address is on the bottom on each unit. Your dorm probably needs to MAC address to allow the device on the network
