How to convert nanometers to rods
1 nanometer is equal to 1.988387815 × 10⁻¹⁰ rods, and 1 rod is equal to 5,029,200,000 nanometers. To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
rods = nanometers × 1.988387815 × 10⁻¹⁰
rods = nanometers ÷ 5,029,200,000Example: convert 1 nm to rd: 1 × 1.988387815 × 10⁻¹⁰ = 1.988387815 × 10⁻¹⁰ rd.

About the nanometer
A nanometer is one billionth of a meter. It's used for wavelengths of light (visible light is about 380–750 nm), molecules and chip manufacturing processes.
Symbol: nm · 1 nm = 1 × 10⁻⁹ m · Category: Metric (SI)
About the rod
The rod is 16.5 feet (5.0292 m), or a quarter of a chain. It was used in land surveying and is still used to measure canoe portages.
