How many OC-1s are in an ODU3?
An ODU3 carries 768 OC-1s, per ITU-T G.709 and Telcordia GR-253. This path maps OC-768 into ODU3 as a client, then follows that client's tributaries.

OC-1s in an ODU3
Working
ODU3 → 1 × OC-768 → 768 × OC-1 (STS-1)
- 1 × OC-768 in each ODU3 ITU-T G.709Client mappingCBR OC-768, the same client rate as STM-256, mapped into OPU3.
- 768 × OC-1 (STS-1) in each OC-768 Telcordia GR-253768 × OC-1 (STS-1). Channelized OC-768 is 768 STS-1s.
- 1 OC-768
- 1 × 768 = 768 OC-1s
Leftover capacity
506.098983 Mbit/s of each ODU3 line rate (40.319218983 Gbit/s) sits outside 768 × 51.840 Mbit/s of OC-1 line rate (39.813120 Gbit/s). That remainder is overhead, fixed stuff or justification. It is not another whole tributary.
By bit rate only
Dividing the line rates gives 777.76, which floors to 777 OC-1s by bit rate only. The standard mapping is 768. Use the mapping.
