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 (imperial) ≈ 87552 lines | 4 cable length (imperial) ≈ 350208 lines |
| 1.5 cable length (imperial) ≈ 131328 lines | 4.5 cable length (imperial) ≈ 393984 lines |
| 2 cable length (imperial) ≈ 175104 lines | 5 cable length (imperial) ≈ 437760 lines |
| 2.5 cable length (imperial) ≈ 218880 lines | 5.5 cable length (imperial) ≈ 481536 lines |
| 3 cable length (imperial) ≈ 262656 lines | 6 cable length (imperial) ≈ 525312 lines |
The line (abbreviated L or l) was a small English unit of length, variously reckoned as 1⁄10, 1⁄12, 1⁄16, or 1⁄40 of an inch. It was not included among the units authorized as the British Imperial system in 1824.
