Two Dishpro Plus Seperators

[satellite_crazy_bob]

I did a search and unless I missed something I was not able to locate this kind of question:

Is it possible to connect (1) ViP622 and (1) DISH Player-DVR 625 to a Dish500 "POINTED AT 110/119" that has a Dishpro Plus Twin LNBF and a second dish "POINTED AT 61.5" that has a Dishpro (single or dual) LNBF which is connected to the LNBF input on the Dishpro Plus Twin LNBF, one cable from the Dishpro Plus Twin LNBF going to a Dishpro Plus Seperator and connect to the ViP622 and the second cable from the Dishpro Plus Twin LNBF going to a second Dishpro Plus Seperator and connect to the DISH Player-DVR 625?

I hope this question is clear enough...

I recall doing just that before I put in my new 500 plus to add 118. Also had a SW21 in that incoming cable config. It was not the best but you can get around the 34 and 44 switches.

To the OP, that's *exactly* what Dish had in mind when they designed the DPP Twin. It's perfect for a 4-room, 2 dual-tuner setup such as yours.

exactly right

What webbydude and birddoggy said.

What you described will work, it has worked for me on about 400 installs, and is the way it was designed to work.

Tim,


You can't use a SW21 with Dish Pro LNBF's you MUST use DP21's.
