So, now that you know the characteristic impedance of your cables (hopefully), all you need to do is to match the resistor value to that value - in my case it was 71ohms. Then calculate the amount of capacitance you need together with that resistance to achieve the -3dB corner frequency you would like, using the equation:
f=1/(6.28*R*C) , where resistance is in ohms and capacitance is in Farads
In my case, I wanted to get an f = about 500kHz, so I used 4.2nF of capacitance.
