Quad LNB is used for 4x receivers or 2x twin tuner receivers where a quattro LNB is used with a switcher and can distribute to as many receivers as needed (usually a communual, commercial or large domestic installation.

A quad LNB has four outputs, each connected to a separate receiver to allow for four satellite signals to be received simultaneously. On the other hand, a quattro LNB has four outputs that are designed to be connected to a multiswitch, with each output carrying signals from different polarization or frequencies to be distributed to multiple receivers.

What is the difference between Dish Pro and Dish Pro Plus LNBs?

the primary difference between DP and DPP is Band Stacking. This is when two informational feeds are stacked onto on coax using two different frequency ranges (900-1450, 1600-2150 MHz). This allows a dual tuner receiver to be run off one piece of coaxial. Before DPP, dual tuners needed two wires, one for each tuner. DPP is accomplished by either LNB or Switch. DP LNB(s) can be connected to DPP switch and the band stacking is applied from switch to STB.
