Not sure, to be fully honest, about what is happening.
Or how things are being setup or configured for that matter.
However, I am sure that if you exceed the spec's anywhere along the way then bad things may happen.
To offer a practical solution, you need to look at the specifications for all components involved.
If what you have matches the specifications all should be okay.
If what you have does not match the specifications then do not use the "old".
There may be some tolerance available but I do not see that in the information you have provided.
Using "out of spec" cables for any amount of time is unlikely to end well for you or the components involved.
