Initially it is bladeRF, but many more are of interest: USRP, rtl-sdr, HackRF, ... [1] I agree an administrator might not know what SDR is, since it is currently still not widely known, and makes sense only for amateurs and researchers. But as a SDR fan, I see many new SDR peripherals are created recently, and expect to see more. So a generic ID seems reasonable to me.
