The wire pairs are routed around each connectors with a punch-down tool. Very reliable. At the end of the CAN-H, CAN-L pair is a terminating 100-ohm resistor. The other end of the pairs is terminated to a RJ-11 male connector and plugged into the 2CAN.

Do you have pictures of the inside of the box, I'm not quite sure I have a clear picture of what's going on inside. This seems like a great way to eliminate one of the problems with CAN.
