Read the doc for redirectPort at:
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/config/http.html

"If this Connector is supporting non-SSL requests, and a request is
received for which a matching <security-constraint> requires SSL
transport, Catalina will automatically redirect the request to the port
number specified here."

It would be a bit silly to have the port 443 <Connector> redirect to
port 443, don't you think?  You need it on the port 80 <Connector> so it
has some idea of what to do with a request for CONFIDENTIAL traffic.
