The invention provides a connector-attached dielectric waveguide that allows the dielectric waveguide to be easily connectable with an opposite component and is capable of forming a connection structure exhibiting low transmission and return losses of a high frequency signal. The connector-attached dielectric waveguide includes a dielectric waveguide and a connector. The dielectric waveguide includes a dielectric waveguide body and a dielectric waveguide end. The dielectric waveguide end has a smaller cross-sectional area than the dielectric waveguide body.

The invention provides a dielectric waveguide for transmitting millimeter waves or sub-millimeter waves. The dielectric waveguide is easily processed and connected even when having a small diameter, and can provide a connection structure exhibiting low transmission and return losses of high frequency signals. The dielectric waveguide includes a dielectric waveguide body and a dielectric waveguide end having a lower permittivity than the dielectric waveguide body. The dielectric waveguide body and the dielectric waveguide end are seamlessly and monolithically formed from the same material.
