TECHNICAL INFORMATION BULLETIN
Subject: DISH Pro Plus Twin LNBF Installation Information & Special Considerations
Introduction
To prepare you for the upcoming release of the DP Plus Twin LNBF, this bulletin provides important information
about this advanced LNBF. Before doing this installation, you should know how this LNBF is used, know its
special considerations, and read the attached DISH Pro Plus Twin LNBF User’s Guide. Please visit the Retailer
Website for any updates to this guide.
How It Works
This LNBF receives the 119º West and 110º West orbital locations and delivers them to up to two
receivers. Either output port can feed on a single cable:
o A DISH Pro single-tuner receiver
o A DP Plus dual-tuner receiver with a DP Plus Separator
o A Legacy receiver (without a DISH Pro Adapter)
A third port labeled LNB IN supports reception of a third orbital location delivered from a DISH Pro
compatible LNBF.
Special Considerations
Refer to the DISH Pro Plus Twin LNBF User’s Guide for detailed installation instructions and for the special
considerations below.
DP Plus dual-tuner receivers require a software download to complete the installation. A special
download procedure is included in the user guide.
There is a 200’ cable length limit for DISH Pro and DP Plus dual-tuner receivers with some additional
limitations as detailed in the user guide.
When connecting a Legacy receiver, a second receiver must also be connected to power the LNBF:
o If the second receiver is DISH Pro or DP Plus, the DP Plus Twin will be fully functional.
o If the second receiver is Legacy, the LNB IN port (for a second satellite dish) cannot be used.
Legacy receivers will recognize the DP Plus Twin as an SW64 switch – this is normal.
The DP Plus Twin may be connected to a DP Plus 44 switch, but not to DP21 switches or DP34 switches.
A DP Plus Separator allows a DP Plus dual-tuner receiver to be fed by a single cable – it cannot be used
to feed two single-tuner receivers.
The DISH Player-DVR 921 cannot be installed using two cables directly connected to both DP Plus Twin
ports at this time. The 921 software will be upgraded later to add this support.
The DISH 721 does not have support for the DP Plus Twin at this time. The 721 software will be
upgraded later to add this support.
