Likewise there is a pair on pins 2 and 5 and also one pair on 3 and 4. Does it hurt to have the extra pair on the outside? What about wiring the one marked at no connector that corresponds to the ground?

I assume you are trying to make cables for to communicate between Jags and not a serial adaptor. Below is a link to a thread with a video tutorial on making CAN cables.

I hope this helps.
