Strange value for the CN attributes of some groups in Active Directory using CSVDE

I used CSVDE to export every groups of my Active Directory in a CSV file. I am looking for the CN attribute (common-Name)

In my result, i have some CN that have a strange format. (and also longer than the maximum lenght - 64 bytes)

The stranges CN look like:

X'517565416770705f40726f63c3b964757265725f2d5f61646d696e697374726174696f65f6a4c'

I can't find out what are those groups and why i get these values.

The value is an Hexadecimal value that can be converted to string.

The reason why CSVDE give me an hexadecimal value is that the initial value contains an accent.
