Abstract

An optical module includes a substrate, an optical device, and a plurality of light transmitting elements and a plurality of light receiving elements disposed between the optical device and the substrate. The optical device includes a device body, and an optical transceiver interface and a lens array that are disposed on the device body. The lens array is configured to optically couple the plurality of light transmitting elements with the optical transceiver interface, and optically couples the optical transceiver interface with the plurality of light receiving elements. An auxiliary lens is disposed on an optical coupling path between the plurality of light transmitting elements and the optical transceiver interface or between the optical transceiver interface and the plurality of light receiving elements.
