If you click on "Instant Client for Linux x86-64" (2 lines above) you
get to
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/linuxx86-64soft-092277.html
which mentions "oracle-instantclient12.1-basic-12.1.0.2.0-1.x86_64.rpm"
and other RPMs.

(I agree that the documentation in the package could be improved a
bit.)
