Abstract

See full text

A receptacle type optical apparatus is provided that prevents occurrence of misalignment in coupling optical waveguides. The receptacle type optical apparatus includes an optical device module having a light-emitting device and a light-receiving device, and an enclosure that stores the optical device module, the receptacle type optical apparatus allowing a part of an optical connector to be inserted inside the enclosure and establishing connection with the optical connector. An inner spatial area is formed in the enclosure that allows the part of the optical connector and the optical device module to be swingable with respect to a predetermined position in the optical device module. Furthermore, a support member is provided to swingably support the part of the optical connector and the optical device module integrally at the predetermined position. Accordingly, the receptacle type optical apparatus allows the optical connector and the optical device module to swing integrally, thereby preventing occurrence of misalignment in coupling optical waveguides.
