An optical connector for connecting a plug unit for holding the end face of an optical fiber with an inward retraction from the leading end portion and a receptacle unit having packaged therein a light receiving/emitting element to transfer an optical signal with the optical fiber, to each other through a clearance between the end face of the optical fiber and the light receiving/emitting element. The optical connector includes a lens disposed in at least one of the position which is retracted inward from the leading end portion of the plug unit and the position which is retracted inward from the end face of the receptacle unit on the plug unit side, for condensing the optical signal, as emitted from one of the optical fiber and the light receiving/emitting element, to the other.
