Coupling RJ-45 Cables

I have three RJ-45 Cables coupled together. My question is, will this make any significant decrease in speed?

My puppy chewed through my external line today, and i had to cut/crimp/couple the 2 sides, i ping 0 to the router when i ping it (200 foot run) so i don't think there's any added latency issues. That was the only test i ran since the drop isn't used unless i'm in that room on my laptop, so i have no real world tests, but everything seems smooth, no problems i noticed.....but i'm curious if anyone else has some feedback.

Naw, you should be fine.

As long as the crimp job on each end of the cat5 is good, and the coupler stays firmly connected, and dosent get wet etc, there really isint any difference.
