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) ≈ 3242.6666666667 nails (cloth) | 4 cable length (imperial) ≈ 12970.666666667 nails (cloth) |
| 1.5 cable length (imperial) ≈ 4864 nails (cloth) | 4.5 cable length (imperial) ≈ 14592 nails (cloth) |
| 2 cable length (imperial) ≈ 6485.3333333333 nails (cloth) | 5 cable length (imperial) ≈ 16213.333333333 nails (cloth) |
| 2.5 cable length (imperial) ≈ 8106.6666666667 nails (cloth) | 5.5 cable length (imperial) ≈ 17834.666666667 nails (cloth) |
| 3 cable length (imperial) ≈ 9728 nails (cloth) | 6 cable length (imperial) ≈ 19456 nails (cloth) |
A nail, as a unit of cloth measurement, is generally a sixteenth of a yard or 2 1/4 inches (5.715 cm). The nail was apparently named after the practice of hammering brass nails into the counter at shops where cloth was sold.
