As for FS backups i can achieve 100MB/sec.
For test backup i have turn the optimization on but for production i will keep it off and we are using crosscheck option to sync the catalog.

Ok so your script is limiting your parallisms to 2, you could try adding more streams by adding in additional allocated channel commands. To run four streams you would do:
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch01 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE';
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch02 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE';ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch03 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE';
ALLOCATE CHANNEL ch04 TYPE 'SBT_TAPE';
Also FYI CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON; can cause data loss on your backups if you don't fully understand the implications of this.
Use caution when enabling backup optimization if you use a media manager with its own internal expiration policy. Run CROSSCHECK periodically to synchronize the RMAN repository with the media manager. Otherwise, RMAN may skip backups due to optimization without recognizing that the media manager has discarded backups stored on tape.
But I really would recommend getting a good DBA to help you out with all of this....

This is moving into the realms of RMAN performance tuning so you may get better advise from an Oracle board on this.
Your default settings look ok to me, you could try testing with different values for CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE 'SBT_TAPE' PARALLELISM 4; to see which gives the best performance. Also all of the settings you provided can be overwritten by the RMAN script, can you post this too?

I am unable to get more than 50MB/sec for rman backups. Although
filesystem backups are running 100MB/sec.
Is there any conf changes required in the rman. I have rman setting like this.
=========================================================
RMAN> show all;
RMAN configuration parameters are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO REDUNDANCY 1; # default
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON;
