I'm slicing the cable into bundles of 4 wires and then zip tying the
result into a "tubular shape."  It seems to work well.  If there has
been a performance degradation, I haven't noticed.  I'm using one of
the systems to capture uncompressed video at 30fps with zero dropped
frames so I'm assuming things are performing just fine.  I haven't
even thought of doing a before and after test since it just worked
out of the box.

Cheers,
