Yes, the quantity you enter for the Deka Wire - Jacketed 7-Wire # DW04914-1 is equally to the amount of feet you will receive. So if you need 20 feet of this wiring then you'll enter "20" into the quantity section.
If you're looking for a 7-Way connection as well then I really like the Wiring Upgrade Kit # HS381-9000 for the trailer side because of the organization with the junction box, and then the Hopkins Wiring Kit # HM40975-11998 for the vehicle side because it gives you an OEM-looking socket set for both 4-Way and 7-Way connections.
I also recommend using heat shrink butt connections like the 12-10 Gauge # DW05745-5 and 16-14 Gauge # DW05744-10 because the shrink wrap does an excellent job keeping the elements out.
