Notes:

• *Are restricted for usb redirection by GPO (recommended settings) Hub as a device is not redirected to VDA, however any devices plugged into hub will redirect seamlessly Modem Devices are blocked by the default policy MTP mode for Samsung devices gets policy restricted due to modem exposure to client.
• Phones and Tablets are optimized by “Client USB Plug and Play device redirection” policy which is by default enabled for Windows Server OS only  

For Server OS

The USB client drivers must be compatible with RDSH for Windows 2012 R2.
Non fully virtualized device such as Smart Card Reader has no USB support because these devices utilize the dedicated service running for session 0 (first session) on Windows Server VDA.
Mass Storage for Server OS is supported from 7.11 VDA.
Audio Device for Server OS is supported from Receiver 4.5 and VDA 7.8.
Encrypted USB redirection and Bitlocker to go devices are currently not supported with Server OS.
