I doubt that there is a direct solution.
I'd create a SSH tunnel to the machine, and run rsync on top of it (by
connecting to the local mirrored port).
ssh (-C) -L <local port>:<remote IP>:<remote port>

rsync -avz -e "ssh -p 50000" filetocopy demo@host:/path
you can test with this (it will not copy the file but shows you the stats like speed ,bytes transfered or any errors if there any etc...)
rsync -avz -e "ssh -p 50000" filetocopy demo@host:/path
Thanks & Regards
