Abstract
Provided is an optical path converting component capable of being positioned and fixed with less work steps and with a high degree of accuracy. The disclosed optical path converting component (10) configured to optically couple an optical input/output interface (20) disposed on a board and an optical transmission path (100) includes a base body (11) disposed on an optical path connecting the optical input/output interface (20) and the optical transmission path (100) and a mounting portion (118, 121) configured to be mounted on a board (CB) by soldering.
Claims8
An optical path converting component configured to optically couple an optical input/output interface disposed on a board and an optical transmission path, comprising:
- a base body having a first side surface and a second side surface and disposed on an optical path connecting between said optical input/output interface and said optical transmission path;
- and
- four mounting portions configured to be mounted on said board by soldering, two of said four mounting portions being disposed apart from each other on each of said first side surface and said second side surface,
- wherein said base body is separated from said board in a state where said four mounting portions are mounted on said board by soldering, and
- wherein said four mounting portions are disposed apart from each other such that said optical input/output interface is located in a region having two of said four mounting portions for said first side surface and two of said four mounting portions for said second side surface as vertices.
