The switch is UL approved to take the place of a ground block.
You can have up to 200 feet of cable between a DISH Pro LNBF and a satellite receiver with the DISH Pro Plus 44 Switch connected at any point along the 200 feet of cable. The cable must be rated for 950 to 2150 MHz. Some cable is labeled “Swept tested to 2150 MHz.” If you are unsure whether your cable is rated to 2150 MHz, check the container it came in or talk to your retailer.
Note: The DISH Pro Plus 44 switch can be installed inside or outside your home or building.
Note: Mount the switch so that the dish connections are horizontal (as shown in Figure 1), and put drip loops in all coaxial cables. This helps prevent water from dripping into switch connections.
