Abstract
An optical fiber array device includes a substrate, a cover plate, and a ceramic ferrule array. A receiving groove is defined in one surface of the substrate. The substrate and the cover plate are coupled together and cover the receiving groove. The receiving groove includes a first groove wall and a second groove wall. The ceramic ferrule array includes at least one layer of ceramic ferrules and a number of positioning members. Opposite sides of the at least one layer of ceramic ferrules respectively abut the first groove wall and the second groove wall. Each of the positioning members is located between two adjacent ceramic ferrules.
