Hi there
We have Backup Exec 16 on Windows 2012R2 and new HPE StoreOnce 3540 with only 4x1Gb ports.
As I saw in HCL We have three choices: Fiber channel, CIFS, Ethernet. So We cant use a virtual library with iSCSI. Am I right?
What better way to connect these devices?

We cant use FC because We have only 4x1Gb ports RJ-45.

How do you intend to use the device? As a VTL, OST appliance or disk storage? You got to check the relevent sections of the HCL for the connectivity options.

We are in the process of adding the HPE StoreOnce 3540 Backup System on the Backup Exec 16 Hardware Compatibility List in the following section: SAN Infrastructure components | iSCSI Solutions
You may confgure the unit with BE 16 because we have no reason to believe it will not work. It will soon appear on the HCL and we thank you for your patience.

Does iSCSI applies if he is using the device as a VTL, as he seems to imply in the initial post?

Hello CraigV!
Yes, I am a Veritas Employee. It seems in the switch from Symatec to Veritas my signature did not get the "Veritas Employee" moniker. I hope to have this resolved soon.
