A rod clamp assembly and method for securing a rod. The assembly includes a housing and wedge member. The housing has an oppositely-disposed pair of sidewalls and an oppositely-disposed pair of endwalls. The sidewalls have a side passage that passes through the housing and defines an interior cavity within the housing. The endwalls have an end passage that passes through the housing and its cavity. The end passage includes at least two end passage walls within the housing, each end passage wall being between the cavity and one of the endwalls. The end passage has a cross-sectional shape defined at least in part by two opposing series of holes that increase in diameter toward the cavity, resulting in each of the end passage walls comprising a series of steps. The wedge member has a cross-sectional shape that enables the wedge member to be inserted through the side passage.
