ABSTRACT:
A light input/output terminal module100comprises a jacket tube110and a flange120. A glass portion20of the optical fiber is inserted in the center portion thereof. To efficiently remove the leaked light in a cladding22to the jacket tube110, the jacket tube110is made of silica glass or the same material as that of the cladding22. The jacket tube110is fixed by fusion splicing or adhesion to the cladding so as to integrally unify the jacket tube110and the cladding22. The beam diameter at the fiber end portion is enlarged by an optical component which fusion bonds the tip end of the optical fiber to the coreless fiber so that the optical power density at the light input/output terminal module is reduced.
