Too many connections for Cerbo GX

I have a system with 2 Skyllas, 2 Quattros split phase, and 2 CanBus enabled regulators similar to Wakespeed. The batteries are managed by 2 Lithionics BMS's that are canbus enabled. There are not enough connections on 1 Cerbo. How can I setup this system?

Can bus should be able to daisy chain.

@sparrot

With CAN is usually does not matter what is connected. Or shouldn't. So one battery could even tag onto that. Just terminate at the end.

The inverters are VE bus (daisy chained together) so a totally different port to CAN.

The batteries dont daisy chain like other ones?
