The [i]cross[/i] of a convex $n$-gon is the quadratic mean of the lengths between the possible pairs of vertices. For example, the cross of a $3 \times 4$ rectangle is $\sqrt{ \dfrac{3^2 + 3^2 + 4^2 + 4^2 + 5^2 + 5^2}{6} } = \dfrac{5}{3} \sqrt{6}$. Suppose $S$ is a dodecagon ($12$-gon) inscribed in a unit circle. Find the greatest possible cross of $S$.

The segments $AQ$ and $CP$ intersect at $D$, the segments $BR$ and $AQ$ intersect at $E$, and the segments $BR$ and $CP$ intersect at $F$.
