Default Anyone know the capacitance per meter of T&E cable?

Almost nothing. The line capacitance will never get charged. Not the same
in data cable though. If loads of 1's and 0's are going down the wire at
ten megabits per second (to say nothing of 10GE) then a stream of loads of
1's will charge the line capacitance and thus teh first few zero's at the
end will get missed - hence stuff like bit interleaving etc.

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing eh Steve?
Next time keep yer mouth closed..
