Thread: How to hook up two DP 44 switches

I have 6 receivers, how do I hook 2 DP 44 switches together ?

Get 4 short rg6 cables and run them from the right side of the first switch to the input side of the second switch. You will still need to use the power inserter and have it ran to port 1 on the second switch.

Ok, I did everthing okay, except I just went from port 1 on 1st switch to port 1 on second switch, I am getting 119,110,129 and 61.5 on 1st switch.

Thanks a bunch...

are any or your receivers dual tuner models?

Basically, I have this:

I have a Dish 1000 for 119,110,129 and a Dish 500 pointing at 61.5 and a DP44 switch. On this switch, I have a 622 using 1 port, a 211, and two 311's using the other ports.

On the back of the house I have legacy Dish 500 quad and Dish 300 dual, with SW21 switches that feed another 622, dual cables.

I needed to add 1 more 211, that cable terminates by the other DP44 switch, so I added a DP44 for that one receiver. If I can get another cable to the Dual DP 44's from the Downstairs 622, I would like to do away with the leagcy dishes all together, but not sure that's possible.

I did get the DP44's working together now, all seems well.
