There is provided an opto-electric hybrid module in which an optical element of an optical element unit and a core of an optical waveguide of an opto-electric hybrid unit are aligned with each other simply and precisely. The opto-electric hybrid module includes: a connector 1 including an optical element 13; and an opto-electric hybrid unit 2 including an electric circuit board E and an optical waveguide W which are stacked together. The connector 1 includes aligning protrusions 1a positioned and formed in a predetermined position with respect to the optical element 13. The opto-electric hybrid unit 2 includes fitting holes 2a for fitting engagement with the aligning protrusion 1a, the fitting holes 2a being positioned and formed in a predetermined position with respect to an end surface of a core 25 of the optical waveguide W. The connector 1 and the opto-electric hybrid unit 2 are coupled together, with the aligning protrusions 1a of the connector 1 fitted in the fitting holes 2a of the opto-electric hybrid unit 2, whereby the optical element 13 and the core 25 are aligned with each other so as to be capable of light propagation. |
