The dedup engine built into BE is used to provide dedup for dedup disk storage on ordinary disks with no built-in dedup engine
OST (Open Storage Technology) is a way for BE to interface with disk devices which had their own built-in dedup engine.

Thanks and best regards pkh ,
now my second question is what if i used an open storage ? you've said that the ost has its own built in deduplication as well as in the backup exec has its own deduplication too . is there any conflict with the two if i used an open storage ? and what type of storage that is used for "OST" would it be tape or a disk ???

As I said earlier, OST allows BE to use the device's dedup engine, so it is not using its own engine.
There is no such thing as tape dedup.
