The optical connector includes a housing, an optic transceiver, a lens body and a shield case. The housing includes a tubular section for receiving an optical fiber and a ferrule of a partner optical connector. The lens body is located on one side of the tubular section, wherein a film for closing the tubular section is molded integrally with the tubular section on another side of the tubular section. The film is configured to be broken by inserting the optical fiber and the ferrule into the tubular section.
