How To Install Dish Network 500 Satellite Dish

Dish 500 is a satellite dish provided by Dish Network that was developed to supersede the discontinued Dish 300 model. Dish 500 is slightly larger than the Dish 300 model at 20" in diameter, merely is capable of receiving broadcasts from both the 110°West and the 119°Due west orbital locations owned past EchoStar, effectively doubling the chapters that was provided by the Dish 300 and assuasive Dish Network and EchoStar to provide customers with upwardly to 500 channels to a single satellite dish.

How Dish 500 Works

Dish 500 had an upgraded dual-LNB assembly that Dish 300 didn't, allowing information technology to connect to both EchoStar orbital locations simultaneously, while the Dish 300 was but able to connect to the 119°W location. This was a necessary advancement for EchoStar to properly utilise the 28 transponders information technology had recently caused from ASkyB and MCI WorldCom. To support its larger dual-LNB assembly, Dish 500 measured twenty" in diameter and weighed slightly more, simply was still light enough for easy installation and maintenance.

Applications

Dish 500 could be used for connecting to both EchoStar orbital locations simultaneously in lodge to provide customers with up to 500 channels. Dish 500 could also be used in conjunction with an older Dish 300 model for reception of signals from Latin American orbital locations, such as the 148°W or 61.v°Due west orbital locations, or for additional reception of the 119°W orbital location.

Advantages
