Sounder installation issues

I have a sounder/chart plotter that died on my flybridge. I have a replacement ready to install. The installation will require the sounder cable to pass through bulkheads, on the dash, on the floor, on the dash below, before arriving in the bilge where T-ducers live. The holes I will need to cut to allow the connector fitting to pass through those bulkheads will need to exceed the size of the connector by the diameter of the other 3 cables that already pass that way. With the connector on this unit being significantly larger than the connector on the previous unit, the old hole will not suffice.
Does anyone know whether the sounder cable can be cut and spliced? That would make the holes that already exist adequate.
