Up to 25 MPPT's can be connected to the CCGX with VE.CAN.

There are two ports so that the CCGX can continue the VE.CAN chain to the next device.
If the CCGX is at the end of the chain, then the terminator must bu plugged into the empty port.

no, they are there to daisy chain a single network; there is only a single CAN-bus on a CCGX.

There is more info about CCGX, VE.Can and BMS-Can in the Victron BYD manual - https://www.victronenergy.com/live/battery_compatibility:byd_b-box#gx_device_configuration
