No. Even if this did have the potential to do what you're thinking, you wouldn't split two cables into one. It would kind of kill the point of having the two cables (extra bandwidth)

So I have a CAT 6 cable coming from my Asus RT-N66U into my room, into a TP-Link 10/100/1000Mbps 5-Port Gigabit Desktop Switch. And I was wondering, would a splitter, like the one pictured below help my speeds any if I had two cables coming from the router, into the one CAT 6 cable?
