A cable length or length of cable is a nautical unit of measure equal to one tenth of a nautical mile or approximately 100 fathoms. The unit is named after the length of a ship's anchor cable in the Age of Sail. The definition varies:
| 1 cable length (International) ≈ 2.9069219902684E-5 earth radius | 4 cable length (International) ≈ 0.00011627687961074 earth radius |
| 1.5 cable length (International) ≈ 4.3603829854026E-5 earth radius | 4.5 cable length (International) ≈ 0.00013081148956208 earth radius |
| 2 cable length (International) ≈ 5.8138439805368E-5 earth radius | 5 cable length (International) ≈ 0.00014534609951342 earth radius |
| 2.5 cable length (International) ≈ 7.267304975671E-5 earth radius | 5.5 cable length (International) ≈ 0.00015988070946476 earth radius |
| 3 cable length (International) ≈ 8.7207659708052E-5 earth radius | 6 cable length (International) ≈ 0.0001744153194161 earth radius |
Earth radius is the distance from Earth's center to its surface, about 6,371 km (3,959 mi). This length is also used as a unit of distance, especially in astronomy and geology, where it is usually denoted by R⊕.
