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 OC-12s are in an OC-48?

An OC-48 carries 4 OC-12s, per Telcordia GR-253.

4

OC-12s in an OC-48

Working

OC-48 → 4 × OC-12

  1. 4 × OC-12 in each OC-48 Telcordia GR-2534 × OC-12. Channelized OC-48 is 48 STS-1s.

Leftover capacity

0 bit/s of each OC-48 line rate (2.488320 Gbit/s) sits outside 4 × 622.080 Mbit/s of OC-12 line rate (2.488320 Gbit/s). That remainder is overhead, fixed stuff or justification. It is not another whole tributary.
