PS a few rare old devs don't announce a sernum, so you may be partly
out of luck esp. in light of post from David Zomaya, Tripp Lite.
However newest releases of FreeBSD offer more hub & port no. info
than older releases, & presumably smilar on other OS's, so you may be 
able to extract some differentiating info. Good luck.

Cheers,
