Measuring out shorter cabling lengths - any tips or devices that help?

Does anybody here have any tips for measuring our short cable runs, so you can either make/order in custom length cables?

This is for copper, fiber or power cables.

The distance range is from within a rack, or between racks in a cage (i.e. through the overhead raceways).

Is there maybe some kind of semi-rigid cabling, with metre markings on it? Happy to get different items for different ranges if I need to.

(e.g. I know for RU, there's rack tape - https://racktape.com/ - but I can't find anything here. Standard measuring tape is obviously too stiff to route through cable guides etc., and won't bend/flex the same way copper/fiber cables will)
