contraintes de périphérique / de matériel
I'm not certain of the correct way to express this in FR, though I'm sure some of our FR-native-speakers will be kind enough to jump in and help there.
However, I am pretty sure of the meaning of the EN source text — I don't think this is anything to do with 'the limitations of the devices themselves' (which wouldn't make much technical sense in this context), but rather, 'restrictions on which devices may be used' (etc.) — 'limiting to certain devices'

: But I don't think it's restrictions on the use of the périphérique, but rather, restrictions as to which périphérique this content can be used on. the context seems to be about content usage rights.

Thanks Tony! maybe "utilisation" is ambiguous here!
