Abstract

The invention provides an optical module which is less likely to be damaged, and can be assembled at low cost. The optical module comprises a housing having an electrical signal port for inputting and/or outputting an electrical signal and an optical signal port for inputting and/or outputting an optical signal, a first substrate arranged in the housing so as to connect to the electrical signal port, an optical fiber arranged in the housing so as to connect to the optical signal port, and a second substrate provided with an optical device which connects to the optical fiber to input the optical signal from the optical fiber and output the optical signal to the optical fiber, and arranged in the housing so as to electrically connect to the first substrate, and to be inclined with respect to a base plane of the housing.
