Quantity is how many containers you have. The result is how many tributaries fit, the path, and the leftover line rate. The choices stay in the URL, so you can share them.

How many STM-16s are in a STM-256?
A STM-256 carries 16 STM-16s, per ITU-T G.707.
16
STM-16s in a STM-256
Working
STM-256 → 16 × STM-16
- 16 × STM-16 in each STM-256 ITU-T G.70716 × STM-16.
- 16 STM-16s
Leftover capacity
0 bit/s of each STM-256 line rate (39.813120 Gbit/s) sits outside 16 × 2.488320 Gbit/s of STM-16 line rate (39.813120 Gbit/s). That remainder is overhead, fixed stuff or justification. It is not another whole tributary.
