Only a single Con CAN module may be attached.

However one Con CAN module and one M-Bus module can be used simultaneously.

Do you have any recommendations or suggestions to control 2 CAN bus in a Kunbus raspberry pi environment?

You may use a Con CAN Module and a USB-CAN interface see here elinux.org/CAN_Bus

Thuy, unfortunately, this is due to technical reasons, see circuit diagram of the Revolution Pi Compact.

Furthermore, the Con-Bridge is no longer implemented on CM 4 modules.

Yes, the 1 CAN module limitation applies to all Connect variants (RevPi Connect / Connect + / Connect S / Connect SE). Unfortunately there is no device which supports more than that.
