ABSTRACT:
There is provided an optical connector module of which an optical transmission/reception wafer and an optical waveguide wafer can be registered with each other easily and accurately without misregistration. An optical transmission/reception wafer has guide pin-receiving V-grooves with a V-shaped cross-section, formed at locations preset in association with an optical transmission/reception end of an optical transmission/reception section. An optical waveguide-side connector has an optical waveguide wafer formed with guide pin-receiving V-grooves in association with the guide pin-receiving V-grooves of the optical transmission/reception wafer. Wafer registration guide pins are inserted in these guide pin-receiving V-grooves, and the optical transmission/reception wafer and the optical waveguide wafer are brought close for interconnection such that these guide pins are tightly sandwiched by the guide pin-receiving grooves.
