You can but the sub will only see the "off" side of the 4x4 (so only 1 LNB per switch), if your only connecting to 1 sub receiver then a DN Brand SW-21 Switch would be the better choice for 91 & 82 to 1 sub (single tuner) receiver.

Let us know exactly what equipment you have and what you are trying to do and maybe there are some other options.......

If you need 4 outputs then the SW44 switch would be the recommended switch for a Bell TV subscription set-up, as Bell uses Legacy equipment. As Mavrick stated your 4x4 becomes a 2x4(1 LNB to 4 receivers). If you are using a DishPro Twin then a DP34 switch would be needed.

I didn't think that DP switches worked with Bev subs as they work on diseqc commands?

The SW44 would be the best recommendation here if using up to 4 receivers...Maverick you are correct in that DP switches to my knowledge as well don't play nice with bev subs

DP hardware works great with B3\/
B3\/ has been supporting DP technology for about 6 years now

LNB's yes, but I'm not so sure about the switches.

Yes the receivers are DP compliant and will support DP LNBs as well as the DP34 & the DPP44 switches.

At one point a while back Bell authorized DP equipment for new installs as they regular Legacy equipment was in short supply.
