your table structure should be:
devices:
deviceID - primary key
deviceName
categories:
categoryID - Primary Key
categoryName
devicecategories:
devicecategoryID - Priamry Key
devicecategoryDeviceID - relates to devices.deviceID
devicecategoryCategoryID - relates to categories.categoryID
the devicecategories table is a linking (or relational) table used to create a many to many relationship of devices to categories.
you will need to use the manage relational table behavior to assign the categories to the device.
