When the token is plugged out, authentication will be rejected. Otherwise, authentication is permitted with or without a passphrase, as you deserve. Note that, thus securly implemented, pam_usbng has not been developed for use in very sensitive environment.

Authentication is always bound to a specific user and a specific physical medium (the USB device itself). Nevertheless, it's possible to put a virtually arbitrarily large number of authentication codes on just one device.
