Kevin, we do not have such an adapter. But, there have been discussions on the forum here about doing this and I suspect some of the forum members can give you good advice. Let's see if they chime in.
Here's a thread to check out: http://festoolownersgroup.com/ask-festool/dust-collection-22569/
A 2" to 4" universal adapter should do the trick.

There's a ton of 4" to 2.25" adapters in the world that should neck down your 4" port. Bosch sells a 36mm to 2.25" adapter, it's on amazon. That would be my first try anyway.
That said. Probably not going to work as well as you'd like. Better than nothing though.

In my post the All festool shop, I had a photo of how I connected my CT 26 to my dela planer which uses a 4" hose.
I used a quick disconnect type adapter that a 4" hose screws into and connect it to a 2 1/4 to 4" adapter (if that makes sense).
Heres how I did it

Look at the photo w/ theplaner.
Also tjwl, has a great photo of how he uses his CT on his dewalt table saw.

I used this - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000223YJ/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
to connect a Festool 50mm hose with a 2" vac connector to my dust collector. Works great. It slips into a 4" piece of hose coming off a blast gate.

I'd consider a short 50mm hose for the purpose http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003KN3VYG/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER, then just add the adaptor. That'll probably be my approach ... maybe an additional CTxx
