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 (US) = 2160 hands | 4 cable length (US) = 8640 hands |
| 1.5 cable length (US) = 3240 hands | 4.5 cable length (US) = 9720 hands |
| 2 cable length (US) = 4320 hands | 5 cable length (US) = 10800 hands |
| 2.5 cable length (US) = 5400 hands | 5.5 cable length (US) = 11880 hands |
| 3 cable length (US) = 6480 hands | 6 cable length (US) = 12960 hands |
The hand is a non-SI unit of measurement of length standardized to 4 inches (101.6 mm). It is used to measure the height of horses in some English-speaking countries, including Australia, Canada, the Republic of Ireland, the United Kingdom and the United States.
