Maybe we'll switch our cabling to twisted pair in the future.
Thanks!

Another option that will probably help is placing the CAN terminator in the RJ instead of the DB9. This way the center 2 conductors are not connected in the cable. It's harder to manufacture but it prevents the CAN bus from running along side the serial signals.
