ABSTRACT:
An optical fiber ferrule assembly is equipped with an angular index for indicating a polarization plane of an optical fiber. The assembly includes a polarization plane maintaining optical fiber, an optical fiber ferrule for accommodating the optical fiber so that the optical fiber is fixed thereto in a state that a tip end surface of the optical fiber is exposed, and an angular index member. The angular index member is rotatable with respect to the ferrule. The optical fiber is fixed to the optical fiber ferrule and the angular index member and the optical fiber ferrule are temporarily assembled. Then the tip end surface of the optical fiber is enlarged for observation to decide the polarization plane thereof on the basis of its configuration, and the angular index member and the optical fiber ferrule are relatively rotated. They are then fixed to each other so that the angular index makes a predetermined angle relative to the polarization plane.
