Abstract
A method for fabricating an optical connecting device with a holder having a through hole, multiple optical fibers, a guide member, and a resin body includes steps of: preparing optical-fiber parts to provide the multiple optical fibers; preparing first and second parts to provide the holder, the first and second parts having grooves for providing the through hole of the holder; fixing the parts providing the holder and the optical-fiber parts to each other to form a first product having the through hole produced from the grooves; providing an optical connector tool; positioning a component of the tool in the through hole of the first product to provide the guide member; and thereafter, fixing the component in the through hole with resin to form a second product in which the resin provides the resin body.
