Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them.

Shimano Di2 SM-JC40. only 4 Ports

Why does this only have 4 ports? Have port for only rear shifting for tri shifters?

That is a B junction, which only needs 4 ports. Front derailleur, rear derailleur, battery, and cable from a 5 port A junction where your levers and tri shifters connect.

The 5-port A junction Bald Paul mentions is the SM-EW90-B. The SM-EW90-A also exists, but only has three ports.
If you really want more ports anywhere, you can also install any number of additional B junctions: SM-JC41 (or SM-JC40). These are just "dumb" splitters, and you can have as many of them as you like. You can only have one junction A.
