Abstract
An optical module includes a driver that is provided on a board and generates an electrical signal according to a data signal, and an optical modulator that is connected to an optical fiber and provided on the board and that modulates light emitted from the optical fiber using the electrical signal generated by the driver. The optical module has a cut-out portion that is formed by cutting out part of its outer shape and that accommodates the driver so that the driver overlaps the optical fiber when viewed from a direction perpendicular to the board.
