Most of the commonly found cables have a velocity factor of 0.66.
Most *solid dielectric* cables are close to 0.66

Foam dielectric tends to be faster (because the Vprop is related to the permittivity of the dielectric, and foam is lower than solid)

What velocity factor would you use to measure the physical length of a
cable when you don't know the cable type?
