English term or phrase: 30 pF/ft
The maximum peak signal voltage amplitude, cable capacitance and supplied constant current must be known or presumed. For example, when running a 100 ft. (30,5 m.) cable with a capacitance of 30 pF/ft, the total capacitance is 3.000 pF.

Explanation:
Encontré que en física, "pF" se refiere a lo siguiente

# Picofarad (pF) or petafarad (PF), multiples of farad, the SI unit of electric capacitance (petafarads rarely if ever used)

en español su traducción es: picofaradio (pF)

Espero que te ayude.
Saludos

Explanation:
pF is the abbreviation for pico-Farads, where the Farad is the unit of measurement of capacitance. 30 pF/ft is about 100 pF/m (at least, that's near enough in this context, where it's just giving a 'ball-park' example of a general problem).

disagree  Jennifer Levey: 'Faraday' was the man's name - the unit of measurement is the 'Farad'. // And if you're translating into Spanish, what does 'the' mean?// And why mention both 'pF' and 'pf'?
