Am I misunderstanding something here (I frequently do)?
Looking at a new black plastic Jaguar from the front (connectors) the right connector is 6P4C and is for CAN only and the left connector is 6P6C and is for CAN and RS232. The inner four contacts on both connectors are the exact same. The outer two contacts on the left connector are RS232.

On a grey plastic Jaguar, both connectors are 6P4C and are CAN only.
