Introduction to Installation Diagrams
•The installation options listed on the following pages may or may not be reimbursable installations. Refer to the latest
Business Rules to confirm reimbursement status.
•Installations must use all Legacy LNBFs and switches, or all DISH Pro/DISH Pro Plus LNBFs and switches. Do not mix
and match Legacy components with DISH Pro/DISH Pro Plus components.
•If upgrading from Legacy LNBFs and switches to DISH Pro/DISH Pro Plus LNBFs and switches, ensure all Legacy
components (for example, power inserters) are removed. Remove DP Adapters from any Legacy receivers connected
to DISH Pro Plus components.
•Maximum distance between the furthest LNBF and farthest receiver is 200 feet for DP/DP Plus receivers; 100 feet for
Legacy receivers (four-digit model numbers). Maximum cable length from a wing dish with a compatible DISH Pro
LNBF to a DISH Pro Plus LNBF’s LNB INport is 80 feet with 120 feet from DPP LNBF to receiver for a total of 200 feet.
•Ensure all components (for example, cable, ground blocks, diplexers, splitters, line amps, barrel connectors, wall plates
and surge protectors) are rated for DISH Pro/DISH Pro Plus installations (rated to 2150 MHz and pass DiSEqC 22 KHz
tone—review the DISH Network Approved Accessories List), also referred to as DP compatible.
•Refer to the LNBFs and Switches and Dish Antennas sections for Legacy receiver installation considerations.

•DP: DISH Pro
•DPP or DP Plus: DISH Pro Plus
