Abstract
An optical connector comprising a ferrule including an optical fiber, wherein a hollow portion for optical fiber protrusion is formed on a front end face of the ferrule, the optical fiber is inserted into an optical fiber positioning hole extended from an optical fiber protrusion port provided on a bottom face of the hollow portion toward an inside of the ferrule, and a tip face of the optical fiber is drawn in the hollow portion. This makes it possible to provide an optical connector which can shorten a time for assembly and can be assembled easily and inexpensively.
