Abstract
An optical connection sleevefor optically connecting an optical fiberand an optical deviceis constituted by a resin sleeveincluding an end portionin which a ferruleis inserted and a metal sleeveincluding an end portionon which the optical deviceis disposed, the metal sleevebeing insert-molded in the resin sleeveto be fixed thereto. With such a constitution, occurrence of positional deviation between the sleeveand an optical device unitis prevented, and the optical fiberand the optical devicecan be optically connected surely. Furthermore, it is prevented that the sleeve portion extending cylindrically functions as an antenna for electromagnetic noises. Accordingly, the optical connection sleeve in which the optical fiber and an optical component as the optical device are optically connected with high accuracy, and influences of the electromagnetic noises are fully reduced, an optical module and an optical communication module using the optical connection sleeve are realized.
