Abstract
An optical module is provided with a columnar protrusion over the entire pickup area (EP) for automatic suction by a mounting device at the center of the upper surface of a fiber holding carrier. The protrusion secures a dedicated pickup area (EP) on a top surface. When an extra length of an optical fiber extending from an optical device is routed and held between a pair of wall portions, the extra length including a tip portion is held in a storage area of the fiber holding carrier by a restoring force caused by being pressed against the wall portions.
