DISH Pro & DISH Pro Plus Installation Considerations LNBFs AND SWITCHES DISH Pro LNBFs work with DISH Pro Plus switches. The DISH Pro Plus Twin functions the same as a DISH Pro Twin LNBF when connected to any DISH Pro Plus switch. Cannot connect DISH Pro Plus Twin to DISH Pro 34/DISH Pro 21 switch. DISH Pro Plus 44: 119 /110 on first (top) two ports. Legacy LNBFs and switches can never be used with DISH Pro or DISH Pro Plus LNBFs and switches. The maximum recommended cable length is 200 feet from the LNBFs to the furthest DISH Pro or DISH Pro Plus receiver; 150 feet for Legacy receivers. When mounting switches, position according to instructions on the label. Use drip loops to direct water away from F-connectors. LEGACY RECEIVER INSTALLATIONS The DISH Pro Adapter must be used to connect any Legacy satellite receivers to a DISH Pro LNBF or Switch. o Legacy Receivers include: Models 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, 6000, 2700, 2800, 3700, 3800/3900, 4700/4900 DISHPlayer Models 7100, 7200 All OEM-equivalent models (e.g. RCA, JVC, Phillips) The DISH Pro Adapter is NOT needed when a Legacy receiver is directly connected to a DISH Pro Plus LNBF or Switch. 1000, 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, JVC DVHS IRR, and DISHPlayer 7100/7200 model receivers do not support 4 orbital location installations or reception from the 105, 121, and 129 orbital locations. DISH PRO PLUS (DP PLUS) RECEIVERS DP Plus receivers can be connected with a single cable to DP Plus switches or LNBFs when used with a DP Plus Separator. See the Receiver LNBF/Switch Compatibility Chart for details. SINGLE-CABLE, DUAL-TUNER INSTALLATIONS Three DISH Pro Plus components must be connected together for this type of installation: o DISH Pro Plus LNBF or Switch o DISH Pro Plus Separator o DISH Pro Plus (dual-tuner) Receiver Two single-tuner receivers cannot be connected to a DP Plus Separator they are not DISH Pro Plus receivers. INSTALLATION MATERIALS Materials used in a DISH Pro or DISH Pro Plus installation must be rated to 2150 MHz and pass DiSEqC 22 KHz tone. These materials include: RG-6 cable Ground blocks Diplexers Splitters Line amps Barrel connectors Wall plates Surge protectors DISH Network Retailers, please refer to the latest DISH Pro/DP Plus Compatible Accessories List located on the Retailer Care Site.
