English term or phrase: USB Host function

The following is a list of cameras and MP3 players that are compatible with YH-J50 [modelo del reproductor en cuestión] USB Host function.
mi única pregunta aquí es cómo decirlo y que suene bien. Tengo varias opciones pero después de tanto pensar ya no sé lo que suena bien y lo que no.
yo diría: la función de anfitrión USB o, ¿quizás se entienda mejor si digo la función del USB anfitrión?
Pregunta tonta, lo sé, y lo siento, pero es para asegurarme de que el redactado es correcto.
muchas gracias por vuestras sugerencias.
Quim

Tomás Cano Binder, CT: Sí, ya veo lo que quieres decir. En mi opinión "huésped" no es muy correcto, puesto que un "host" es el que recibe, no el invitado... ¡Pero tienes razón! ¡Qué follón! Saludos humanos. >Hm... ¿Querías decir "anfitrión"? ...

-> No, por raro que parezca, quería decir 'huésped'. Hay multitud de ejemplos en el google. Ya sé que 'host' no es 'huésped' realmente, sino 'anfitrión', pero no sé por qué en el mundo informático lo llaman así... :) Un saludo.

Hugo Urrestarazu: el uso de 'huésped' es una de las expresiones del mal uso de la lengua por parte de los ingenieros (y de algunos traductores), que de tanto usarlas se hacen comunes y se transforman en léxico de jerga establecida
