Hi It is my understanding that the USB guidelines provide for EMI filtering at the output. That is to say: for USB1 - ferrite beads and caps, for USBII a common mode choke is recommended. Take a look in there.
Also, USB is a differential signal so appropriate design on the board needs to be considered> Best Regards Charles Grasso Senior Compliance Engineer Echostar Communications Corp.

We have achieved good results with careful attention to PCB layout (an adequete ground plane, don't even try 2-layer) and shielding, especially with the cable.
