SSH? You are using scp.

It goes something like this :

scp local_location user@target_ip:target_location.

Example :

scp /tmp/myFile.tar root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/

You can try the following command:

cat localfile | ssh target_address cat ">" remotefile

For example:

cat local.txt |ssh $user@target_ip cat ">" remote.txt
