You need an accurate unit with four wire measurement capability which in my case is an excellent and cheap der ee de 5000 handheld lcr meter.
Cable impedance meter.
Category 5 cable cat 5 is a twisted pair cable for computer networks since 2001 the variant commonly in use is the category 5e specification cat 5e the cable standard provides performance of up to 100 mhz and is suitable for most varieties of ethernet over twisted pair up to 1000base t gigabit ethernet.
We strive to deliver complete solutions to meet your needs from lcr meter impedance meter to a wide variety of test accessories.
The variation between a perfect or ideal source having zero ohms impedance and response from dc to daylight compared to an amplifier with 24mω output impedance is not great with any cable the 12 gauge zip shows a variance of only 0 03db close enough between the two sources and this has the lowest dc resistance of the cables tested.
But how do you get the inductance and capacitance of your bit of cable.

Just take a piece of the cable just a short piece is enough and measure the capacitance between the center core lead and the shield of the cable on one end of it.
An easy way to see the impedance of a cable is to apply a square wave signal to a cable of about 10 meters 30 feet on the end of the cable a pot from about 100 ohm and connect it to a oscilloscope look at the square wave and adjust the pot until you have no overshoot and it look the most as the original signal.
