Most cable lengths are an average of 6.5ft, which should be sufficient for working when standing; however, it would be important to consider where the power sockets are located. The Lotus Sit Stand 0007901/0009901 raises 17" and the VE Sit Stand 8080101/8082001 raises 15" above the desk so to ensure proper cord length, you will want to have the Sit Stand at the highest position.
