The key here is the outer shielding and good connections. Make sure to get some type of wire mesh around the outside of the wires. Otherwise, stray voltage will mess with the signals. The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is metal screen, but I'm sure somebody will come up with a better idea.

They are sheilded, possibly even a twisted pair, but I would think that the
inner wires could be reattached and crimping would be fine. Then just do a
careful jub of taping the inner wires (I use liquid electrical tape, let
cure and wrap once with regular e tape just to be sure they don't contact.

Then try to get a good wrap around with the shield wire.
