Abstract
An optical receptacle according to the invention includes a columnar stub ferrule having an optical fiber inserted into a center line connecting both opposite end faces; a cylindrical sleeve into which a part of the stub ferrule is inserted; and a housing in which a through hole is formed, which houses the stub ferrule and the sleeve in the through hole, which holds a part on a side on which the stub ferrule is not inserted into the sleeve, with a projecting portion formed in the through hole, and which surrounds a side surface of the stub ferrule on the side on which the stub ferrule is not inserted into the sleeve. The optical receptacle has a space between the side surface of the stub ferrule on the side on which the stub ferrule is not inserted into the sleeve and an inner peripheral surface of the housing opposing the side surface.
