How to Install a DP21 Switch

The following instructions assume you have already pointed your dish for the strongest possible signal, that you have run Check Switch with the DishPro LNBF connected directly to the receiver’s Satellite In port, and that you have taken a software upgrade from the satellite. If not, follow the Dish installation instructions that came with your receiver.

Connections

1.Mount the DP21 switch onto the side of a building, or on some other sturdy structure. Make sure that the switch is mounted with the port labeled To Receiver Satellite In pointing down. Fasten the switch tightly to the surface.

Note: The DP21 switch is designed for outside use.

You can have up to 200 feet of RG-6 cable between a DishPro LNBF and a DishPro satellite receiver with the DP21 Switch connected at any point along the 200 feet of RG-6 cable. The cable must be RG-6 or Series 6 and marked for use at 2200MHz or higher. If you are unsure contact your local DISH Network retailer, or DISH Network at 1-800-333-DISH (3473) to arrange for a professional installation. Use of the incorrect type of cable may affect system operation or performance.
