Optical communication module and optical communication device

摘要

An optical communication module is composed of a photoelectric conversion element to transduce an optical signal into an electrical signal or an electrical signal into an optical signal, an optical fiber including an end and being optically coupled to the photoelectric conversion element, a receiving member including an outer surface and receiving the end of the optical fiber and the photoelectric conversion element, and a plurality of electrodes protruded from the outer surface of the receiving member and aligned in a straight line. The optical fiber is drawn from the outer surface of the receiving member and in an oblique direction relative to a direction of the alignment of the plurality of electrodes.
