Your cable is connected to a vacuum cleaner from Dyson, which attempted to pull it in but failed. This situation could potentially affect the internal components, including any protective rubber casing around the cables.
The details, if accepted, indicate 30AWG unless it's a low-cost copper or aluminum alloy. That should be acceptable.
Well, if that's how you want to view it. Then there is nothing we can say to convince you otherwise, no ? It will need either an X-ray or be cut and inspected or tested with ethernet speed tester. Like I said, what's stopping you from trying the cable and see if it still perform the same ? Old cables (depending on how old) might have suffered from insulation degradation over time, which makes them brittle. Plus, what damaged it? accidentally vacuum cleaned too ?
