Basic "Rule of Thumb" in the Telecom industry is information travels 1
foot per nanosecond. We have more accurate and complex equations when it
comes to thruput and buffering but there are a lot of applications that
have very strict timing requirements, and ways to measure it.

You can go to 20 places past the decimal point and not be accurate
though you might imply it.
How do the compensate for the length of the wire?
