Optical connector having high coupling precision

摘要

An optical connector includes a first optical-electric coupling element and a second optical-electric coupling element. The first optical-electric coupling element includes a first side surface and a second side surface facing away from the first side surface. The first optical-electric coupling element includes two position posts substantially perpendicularly extending from the first side surface. Each position post includes a connection surface substantially parallel with the first side surface. Each connection surface defines a position slot. The second optical-electric coupling element includes a third side surface facing the first side surface. The third side surface defines two position holes. The second optical-electric coupling element includes two position flanges each extending from an inner sidewall of each position hole. The position posts are inserted into the position holes to attach the first optical-electric coupling element to the second optical-electric coupling element, with the position flange inserting into the position slot.
