o    The height of a rack in inches depends on the number of U units it has. Each U (rack unit) equals 1.75 inches.

Example:

§  6U rack: 6×1.75=10.56×1.75=10.5 inches.

§  12U rack: 12×1.75=2112×1.75=21 inches.

§  42U rack: 42×1.75=73.542×1.75=73.5 inches.

So, for any rack height, multiply the U number by 1.75 to get the height in inches!
