It can be used for embedding multiple indexed descriptors in USB devices, which can be easily identified by USB hosts using special requests.

Initially, part of the Windows Media Device Manager 10 SDK, MTP (or Media Transfer Protocol) is designed for device control, allowing the transfer between multiple digital audio or video players. Media Transfer Protocol Porting Kit (MTP Driver for Android) is developed as a set of tools that aim to facilitate the transfer of various file types to portable media devices.
