At least one layer, such as for example an elastomeric film or conformable sealant, is mounted on a circumferential perimeter portion of the concave housings across the open face of each of the concave housings. At least one layer, such as an elastomeric film, is adapted to interface one or more cables when the cables are interposed between the housings.
