Script to use SFTP

I have an FTP Script as below. And I want the same to be converted to Secured FTP (SFTP) script.

FTP_OUT=`ftp -v -n << END_SCRIPT
open $HOST
user $USR $PWD
lcd $LOC_PATH
cd $REM_PATH
mput $FILENM
quit
END_SCRIPT`

Suggest the SFTP equivalent of the above FTP script to transfer file from local server to remote server.

You should use scp

scp filename user@host:remote_path

This requires you to enter the password. If you want to avoid entering the password every time you use scp, you could generate an authentication key with ssh-keygen.
