ABSTRACT:
The invention comprises three parts: The first parts provides a miniaturized functional optical module, which is provided with a lens-exchange type collimator enabling rapid and easy exchange of an optical functional component and/or lenses and being compact in size and excellent in durability.The second part provides a power supply device for an optical functional component that supplies power to the optical functional component with reliability for a long term and enables easy exchange of the optical functional component, and an optical functional module having such a power supply device. The third part provides an optical switch compact in size and greatly easy in handling, which is provided with a connector module having a plurality of optical fibers for light-beam input, a plurality of optical fibers for light-beam output corresponding to the plurality of optical fibers and a light-beam reflecting member.
