In the first housing 3 mounted floating in the backplane 1 is housed the second housing 7 by latching and connecting the latching projection 4 to the latching pawl 10, the backplane side optical connector plug 14 is incorporated in the second housing 7. And, the package side optical connector plug 23 is incorporated in the third housing 18 of the package 2. Then, the third housing 18 is inserted in the first housing 3, and the unlatching part 20 at the third housing 18 side presses down the tip side slope 13 of the latching pawl 10 to unlatch and disconnect the latching pawl 10 from the latching projection 4. In this status, the ferrules 16 and 25 of the backplane side and the package side optical connector plugs 14 and 23 are positioned and connected to connect the backplane 1 to the package 2 optically.
