This invention provides optical interconnection apparatus, which permit easy optical interconnections without a loss in the intactness of a routing pattern of optical fibers, and also their fabrication processes. An optical interconnection apparatus according to this invention has a base film having a two-dimensional plane, plural optical fibers routed on the base film an edge-dam arranged along or in a vicinity of a peripheral edge of the base film, a protective resin layer holding in place and protecting the plural optical fibers routed on the two-dimensional plane of the base film, and end portions located at opposite ends of the optical fibers and adapted to permit optical interconnections. The protective resin layer is formed, for example, by filling a resin material inside the edge-dam arranged along or in the vicinity of the peripheral edge of the base film and then solidifying it.
