Barracuda Backup Panel Indicators, Ports, and Connectors

  • Last updated on

The illustrations in this article are based on current hardware models, however, models differ based on release date and may change in the future. If your appliance connections differ from those shown in this article, refer to the Barracuda Backup Datasheet on the Barracuda website, or contact Barracuda Networks Technical Support for additional information.

Note: The Barracuda Encrypted Backup appliances are no longer available. Encryption of data at rest has been added as a standard feature to all Barracuda Backup appliances (Models 190-1090). For more information, see Data Encryption on Barracuda Backup Appliances.

Customers with a Barracuda Encrypted Backup appliance (Models 6090, 8090, 9090, 10090) will continue to be supported. If the Barracuda Encrypted Backup appliance fails, and you have an active Instant Replacement subscription, your replacement appliance will be equivalent to your current model and capacity.

(Model 6090)

Network port.

10 Gigabit Ethernet Card
(Model 690)

If your organization's environment does not support 10 Gigabit throughput, the card reduces its speed to 1 Gigabit:

  • 1 Gigabit Connection – Plug in a CAT5e cable for 1 Gigabit throughput.

  • 10 Gigabit Connection – Plug in a CAT6e cable and a 10 Gigabit switch for 10 Gigabit throughput.

Notes:
(1) The C13 to C14 cable is standard for most rack setups as a power strip allows for the C14 connection. C13 to NEMA 5-15P is the standard for direct connections to a UPS.

(2) Models 690/6090 and higher come with two network interfaces. One is active and the other is inactive, denoted by a plastic RJ45 connector in the port. The inactive port can be enabled in two ways. One, via NIC bonding which allows users to bond multiple network interfaces into a single channel; note that you must have two separate network connections and this is not to be used for one data pipe. Two, through traffic management. Manage the traffic that goes out of each NIC, that is, replication traffic through the default interface, and backup traffic through the secondary interface. To enable the inactive network interface, contact Barracuda Networks Technical Support.

  • 10 Gigabit Connection – Plug in a CAT6e cable and a 10 Gigabit switch for 10 Gigabit throughput.

10 Gigabit Fiber Card

Use a small form-factor pluggable (SFP) transceiver module:

  • SFP – Use SFP for 1/4 Gigabit/second throughput; you will need a multi-mode cable with LC connections or a direct attach cable.

  • SFP+ – Use SFP+ for 10 Gigabit/second throughput (included); you will need a multi-mode cable with LC connections or a direct attach cable.

  • Vendor-Specific SFP – If you are using a vendor-specific module in your environment, simply remove the Barracuda provided SFP and replace with other vendor.

By default the top port is active.

If you want to bond the two ports for 20 gigabit throughput with failover capabilities, Contact Barracuda Networks Technical Support.

Notes:
(1)The C13 to C14 cable is standard for most rack setups as a power strip allows for the C14 connection. C13 to NEMA 5-15P is the standard for direct connections to a UPS.

(2)The power supply may be degraded when, for example, one of the PSUs is not functioning. Push Reset; if this does not resolve the issue you may need to replace a PSU.

(3) Models 690 and higher come with two network interfaces. One is active and the other is inactive, denoted by a plastic RJ45 connector in the port. The inactive port can be enabled in two ways. One, via NIC bonding which allows users to bond multiple network interfaces into a single channel; note that you must have two separate network connections and this is not to be used for one data pipe. Two, through traffic management. Manage the traffic that goes out of each NIC, that is, replication traffic through the default interface, and backup traffic through the secondary interface. To enable the inactive network interface, contact Barracuda Networks Technical Support.
