Hydraulic Brake Switch Connections

Are the master cylinder ports front/rear specific
I don't think so, see no reason for that. The switch is designed to detect a difference in pressure between the front and rear

Some master cylinders are designed to apply the front brakes before applying the rear brakes, and some master cylinders use pressure from the rear most cyl to build pressure that apply the front most cylinder
