An integrated optical circulator comprising at least two single-fiber bidirectional optical fiber interfaces, a refractive element group, an optical isolation element group, and an optical fiber array, wherein the refractive element group and the optical isolation element group are sequentially arranged on a same optical path; incident signal light from each optical fiber interface sequentially passes through the refractive element group and the optical isolation element group, then is output by a corresponding outgoing optical fiber of the optical fiber array; incident signal light from each incident optical fiber of the optical fiber array sequentially passes through the optical isolation element group and the refractive element group, then is emitted by a corresponding optical fiber interface. Multiple optical circulators are integrated within the volume of a same optical circulator, reducing the volume occupied by optical circulators, lowering overall cost of the device, and improving convenience of optical path integration.
