Yup. I'd want to fetch out what the '2 ports' exactly means.

The oldest single acting cylinders had 1 hose, push only, gravity returned the oil.

Then there were double acting cylinders, which push the cylinder in both directions, needs 2 hoses or tractor connections for each cylinder.

I would read your ad to say there are 2 levers on the tractor to control 2 seperate double acting hyd cylinders - or 2 pair (4 total connectors) on the tractor.

However, some people will look at things a little differently, or just might not know. You could have 2 levers controling 2 single-acting (1 hose each) or 1 lever controling 1 double acting cylinder (2 connectors).

And yes, most often you can make a double acting tractor control operate a single acting cylinder - I know that wasn't the question, but my explination will bring it up. ;)
