I've never felt much love for those type of cables. What you gain in compactness, you lose in reliability, in my experience. They tend to use thinner gauge wire (to enable the smaller) bending radius, which either limit current (well, increase voltage drop) or just break through fatigue. Also the ratchets are, well, ratsh*t.
Finally, I have even seen (have) Ethernet type cables in this holland-blind format that seem to have pairs that aren't twisted, so I don't feel like risking my Gigabit bits on them with the expected crosstalk.
