How many OC-1s are in an OTU2?

An OTU2 carries 192 OC-1s, per ITU-T G.709 and Telcordia GR-253. This path maps OC-192 into ODU2 as a client, then follows that client's tributaries.

OC-1s in an OTU2

Working

OTU2 → 1 × ODU2 → 1 × OC-192 → 192 × OC-1 (STS-1)

  1. 1 × ODU2 in each OTU2 ITU-T G.709The OTU2 frame carries exactly one ODU2.
  2. 1 × OC-192 in each ODU2 ITU-T G.709Client mappingCBR OC-192, the same client rate as STM-64, mapped into OPU2.
  3. 192 × OC-1 (STS-1) in each OC-192 Telcordia GR-253192 × OC-1 (STS-1). Channelized OC-192 is 192 STS-1s.

Leftover capacity

755.945316 Mbit/s of each OTU2 line rate (10.709225316 Gbit/s) sits outside 192 × 51.840 Mbit/s of OC-1 line rate (9.953280 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 206.58, which floors to 206 OC-1s by bit rate only. The standard mapping is 192. Use the mapping.
