bruAPP Backup Appliance D2T FC Models & Pricing

If you already have a Fibre Channel library that you wish to use with a bruAPP, please contact BRU Sales for connectivity options.

All bruAPP Backup Appliance hardware bundles include new (not gray market or refurbished) ATTO Technology® HBA's, all required cables and BRU Server software for the bruAPP/OS on which the software will be used (the operating system of each bruAPP Backup Appliance).

All technical support for the bundled hardware is provided directly by TOLIS Group Technical Support, thereby eliminating the need for the consumer to contact ATTO Technologies for the HBA, TOLIS Group Technical Support for the BRU Server software and bruAPP/OS operating system. Instead, one phone call to TOLIS Group Technical Support for all components, when purchased as a bundle, provides you with technical support for all of the purchased hardware and software.

Fibre Channel Connection Type

All TOLIS Group Fibre Channel tape drives and ATTO Celerity FC HBAs use LC Optical Fibre Channel connections. If you are in need of an Optical-to-Copper adapter (also known as an SFP or tranceiver module) it must be purchased from a third party, such as ATTO Technology, as FC SFP modules are not included with the hardware bundle and are not available from TOLIS Group.

Additionally, FC bundles purchased from TOLIS Group do not include any of the required FC cables. The needed FC cables to connect the chosen TOLIS Group FC bundle to the desired tape device must also be obtained from a third party. TOLIS Group recommends CablesToGo.com for all of your FC, SAS, and SCSI cable needs.

Need it Customized?

We can modify any bundle to provide a better fit into your organization and meet budget requirements. Need to add clients to the bruAPP Backup Appliance client count? Sure thing!

Just about every aspect of the TOLIS Group hardware bundles can be modified to fit your needs and budget. Just talk to one of our non-commissioned BRU Sales representatives for details.

Special Notes

* Cables Excluded: Fibre Channel (FC) bundles do not include FC cables due to the many types and possible adapter (SFP/transceiver) requirements. FC adapters such as SFP, SFP+, transceivers, mini-GBIC, or other adapters/converters are not included in the hardware bundle.
** PCIe Slot Requirements: A PCIe x8 (8-lane) slot is required to obtain full 6Gb/second transfer speed. A PCIe x4 (4-lane) slot is supported at reduced performance. No change in tape write or read speed will be seen in either case.
† Rack Installation Kit: Includes rails to support installation in a standard 19"-wide four post rack. Please verify the available depth against the unit measurements. If your installation requires custom rails, please contact your rack manufacturer for such rails. If you are installing the unit in a two post TELCO-style rack (only supported on with the TGL1800 and TGL2240 units - putting the TGL4480 or TGL8960 into a TELCO-style rack will void the warranty), you must use a center-supported full shelf to support each unit. Also, units should not be stacked on top of one another as their chassis are not designed to support additional weight.
‡ Extended Warranty Service Plan: TOLIS Group provides Extended Warranty & Service support for an additional 2-years on all hardware if the Extended Warranty Service Plan is purchased within 60-days of the initial hardware bundle purchase. For more details, please contact BRU Sales.
†† The ATTO ExpressSAS "R" series (SAS HBA's that start with the letter "R" instead of "H") are identical to the "H" series, except that the "R" series had RAID management and control build into the HBA for hardware RAID configurations.
