Wavelength vs Decametric - What's the difference?

wavelength | decametric |

As a noun wavelength

is the length of a single cycle of a wave, as measured by the distance between one peak or trough of a wave and the next; it is often designated in physics as , and corresponds to the velocity of the wave divided by its frequency.

As an adjective decametric is

of, relating to, or measured using a decameter / decametre; especially of electromagnetic radiation having a wavelength between one and ten decameters.
