How to Install a DP34 Switch
1. Mount the DP34 switch onto the side of a building, or on
some other sturdy structure. Make sure that the mounting
location is stable, and that you fasten the switch tightly to
the surface. The DP34 should be fixed by suitable
hardware for the wall or ceiling.
Note
: Mount the switch so that the connections are
horizontal (as shown in Figure 1), and put drip loops
in all coaxial cables. This helps prevent leakage of
moisture into the switch.
The DP34 switch can be installed
outside
your
home or building, because this device
is
designed
for outside use.
You can have up to 200 feet of cable between a
DishPro LNBF and a DishPro satellite receiver
with the DP34 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.
