Is there a misprint in the Advanced Administration manual?

Shouldn't the ports for the cardav be 8800 and 8843 in the SRV record instead of 8008 and 8443 (caldav)?

Nope, CardDAV and CalDAV use the same ports.
When I manually add both accounts they get automatically configured to 8443 as I use an SSL certificate.
My AEBS opens ports 8800 and 8443(SSL) by default for contacts.
It opens ports 8008 and 8843(SSL) by default for calendar.
Sorry
8800 & 8843(SSL) for contacts
8008 & 8443(SSL) for calendar
You asked if there is a misprint in the document you first linked to. No there is not.
The Apple common ports document from your latest post in my opinion does indeed contain an error, but despite my effort in telling Apple just that they have not changed the document.
The connections for SSL both work at port 8443 (TCP). I did set my SRV records to use port 8443 although only Calendar server seems to use the record (with Contacts is still had to give in a server name).
I am wondering why my AEBS opens ports 8800 and 8843(SSL) by default for contacts. These ports correspond with the Apple Common TCP ports document and not the Advanced Administration Manual.
BTW I created these SRV records on my DynDNS account and everything works perfect.
I am glad that you have no problems.
SRV record for cardav misprint?
