You don't need sshpass if you have the private key matching the public
key already stored on the server. Just use ssh.
This would be for use in a script - I'm assuming someone would use it as part of an automated backup script or when it's not possible to be at the keyboard to enter that passphrase.
Remember "expect"? It sounds reminiscent of that from the 90s.
