Abstract: The invention relates to an improved stuffing tube assembly (100) and method for traversing a bulkhead with a cable. The stuffing tube assembly (100) can accommodate a plurality of cables of varying cross-sectional areas. The improved stuffing tube (100) can also allow cables to pass through the stuffing tube (100) without having to remove and/or resolder the cables' end connectors. The invention can include a resilient material that is positioned between two opposing flanges (407, 413). A cable bore (112) can define an opening extending through the resilient material. A compression device can include a system of opposing flanges (407, 413). When the compression device selectively applies a compressive force to the resilient material, the distance between the opposing flanges (407, 413) can be varied.
