stream audio WAV file to local usb port

["Russell L. Harris" <rlharris@oplink.net>]

I need to stream an audio file in WAV format to a local USB port.

Connected to the USB port is a Henry Engineering USB-AES Matchbox

( http://www.henryeng.com/usbaesmb.html )

in order to convert the WAV file to an AES/EBU stream for further 
processing by apparatus which has an AES/EBU input.

Does this require a streaming audio server?  Or is FTP (such as provided 
by Midnight Commander) sufficient?
