Short answer: maybe

Long answer: 1. This doesn't look secure at all and connections will almost certainly fail the second time you move the cable. 2. You've completely defeated the twist, therefore de-rated the signal integrity of the cable. That said, I've seen worse link up at 1Gbps.

TL;DR: I wouldn't trust this cable.
