I'd assume that those two connectors are for the CAN-high and CAN-low wires. Power is probably separate since all the power systems on an FRC robot are separate from the controls.
What will likely happen is all of CTRE's new CAN stuff will have those two CAN ports separate from the regular old 12v power inputs on all the other components.
