A cable sealing device (10) includes a member (14) includes an elastomeric material and adapted to be fitted into a cable receiving aperture. The member includes a first wall (16) and a second wall (18) spaced apart from the first wall to partially define a cavity (20) between the walls. Each wall includes a cable receiving slot (e.g., 22, 24) formed in the wall. Each wall is deformable away from the respective slot to accommodate a respective cable portion (e.g., 26, 28) extended through the slot so that the wall is biased around the cable portion to minimize any opening around the cable portion passing through the slot. The slots in the respective walls cooperate to provide a redundant seal around a cable portion (30) passing through the member.

We claim as our invention: 1. A cable sealing device comprising: a member comprising an elastomeric material and adapted to be fitted into a cable receiving aperture, the member comprising a first wall and a second wall spaced apart from the first wall to partially define a cavity between the walls
We claim as our invention: 1. A cable sealing device comprising: a member comprising an elastomeric material and adapted to be fitted into a cable receiving aperture, the member comprising a first wall and a second wall spaced apart from the first wall to partially define a cavity between the walls; each wall comprising a cable receiving slot formed in the wall, the wall deformable away from the slot to accommodate a cable portion extended through the slot so that the wall is biased around the cable portion to minimize any opening around the cable portion passing through the slot; and the slots in the respective walls cooperating to provide a redundant seal around a cable portion passing through the member. 2. The cable sealing device of claim 1, further comprising a sealant disposed in the cavity to at least partially fill the cavity sufficiently to seal any opening around the cable portion passing through the slot. 3. The cable sealing device of claim 2, further comprising a sealant receiving aperture in at least one of the walls for injecting the sealant into the cavity. 4. The cable sealing device of claim 1, wherein the cable receiving slot in the first wall extends from a peripheral edge of the first wall to at least a central region of the first wall. 5. The cable sealing device of claim 1, wherein the cable receiving slot in the second wall extends from a peripheral edge of the second wall to at least a central region of the second wall. 6. The cable sealing device of claim 1, further comprising a transverse member disposed between and interconnecting the first and second walls. 7. The cable sealing device of claim 6, wherein the transverse member is disposed remotely from a peripheral edge of each respective wall. 8. The cable sealing device of claim 7, wherein a spacing between the walls corresponds to a depth of the cable receiving aperture in which the member is being fitted. 9. The cable sealing device of claim 1, wherein the elastomeric material comprises a Shore A durometer hardness between about 35 to 45. 10. The cable sealing device of claim 9, wherein the elastomeric material comprises a Shore A durometer hardness between about 38 to 42. 11. The cable sealing device of claim 1, wherein the slot comprises an enlarged opening section. 12. The cable sealing device of claim 11, wherein the enlarged opening section comprises a circular shape. 13. The cable sealing device of claim 11, wherein the enlarged opening section comprises a "D" shape. 14. The cable sealing device of claim 1, wherein the slot comprises a cross shape. 15. An enclosure comprising the cable sealing device of claim 1. 16. A cable sealing device comprising: a "U"-shaped member comprising an elastomeric material and adapted to be fitted in a correspondingly shaped cable receiving aperture, the member comprising a first wall and a second wall spaced apart from the first wall, and a transverse member disposed between and interconnecting the first and second walls to define a cavity between the walls having an opening at a top of the member; a top edge of the first wall, a top edge of the second wall, and opposing top edges of the transverse member forming a sealing periphery at the top of the member for sealing the member against a flat surface disposed over the top; each wall comprising a cable receiving slot extending downwardly from the opening to at least a central region of the wall, the wall deformable away from the slot to accommodate a cable portion extended through the slot so that the wall is biased around the cable portion to minimize any opening around the cable portion passing through the slot; and the slots in the respective walls cooperating to provide a redundant seal around a cable portion passing through the member. 17. The cable sealing device of claim 16, the top edge of each wall comprising a lip extending outwardly from the wall to form a sealing surface at the top edge thicker 20 than a thickness of the wall. 18. The cable sealing device of claim 16, further comprising a sealant disposed in the cavity to at least partially fill the cavity sufficiently to seal any opening around the cable portion passing through the slot. 19. The cable sealing device of claim 18, further comprising a sealant receiving aperture in at least one of the walls for injecting the sealant into the cavity. 20. The cable sealing device of claim 16, wherein the transverse member further comprises a rib extending outwardly from the transverse member adapted to be fitted in a correspondingly shaped recess in the cable receiving aperture when the member is fitted into the cable receiving aperture. 21. An enclosure comprising the cable sealing device of claim 16. 22. A cable sealing device comprising: a "U"-shaped member comprising an elastomeric material and adapted to be fitted in a correspondingly shaped cable receiving aperture, the member comprising a first wall and a second wall spaced apart from the first wall, and a transverse member disposed between and interconnecting respective peripheral edges of the first and second walls to define a cavity between the walls having an opening at a top of the member, the transverse member further comprising a rib extending outwardly from the transverse member adapted to be fitted in a correspondingly shaped recess in the cable receiving aperture when the member is fitted into the cable receiving aperture; a top edge of the first wall, a top edge of the second wall, and opposing top edges of the transverse member forming a sealing periphery at the top of the member for sealing the member against a flat surface disposed over the top, the top edge of each wall comprising a lip extending outwardly from the wall to form a sealing surface at the top edge thicker than a thickness of the wall; each wall comprising a cable receiving slot extending downwardly from the opening to at least a central region of the wall, the wall deformable away from the slot to accommodate a cable portion extended through the slot so that the wall is biased around the cable portion to minimize any opening around the cable portion passing through the slot; and the slots in the respective walls cooperating to provide a redundant seal around a cable portion passing through the member. 23. The cable sealing device of claim 22, further comprising a sealant disposed in the cavity to at least partially fill the cavity sufficiently to seal any opening around the cable portion passing through the slot. 24. An enclosure comprising the cable sealing device of claim 22.
