How many STM-4s are in a STM-16?

Working

STM-16 → 4 × STM-4

1. 4 × STM-4 in each STM-16 ITU-T G.7074 × STM-4.

• 4 STM-4s

Leftover capacity

0 bit/s of each STM-16 line rate (2.488320 Gbit/s) sits outside 4 × 622.080 Mbit/s of STM-4 line rate (2.488320 Gbit/s). That remainder is overhead, fixed stuff or justification. It is not another whole tributary.
