scp user@remotehost.com:filename /path/local/directory

scp /path/local/directory user@remotehost.com:filename

If you want to copy a directory from local host to a remote host
scp -r /path/local/directory user@remotehost.com:/path/remote/directory

If you want to copy a directory from remote host to a local host

scp user@remotehost1.com:/path/remote/host1/filename
