Abstract
An optical transceiver includes housing, connector coupler and internal optical connector. Opening of housing is located on a side of housing and connected to accommodation space of housing. Connector coupler includes positioning frame and at least one elastic holding arm. Elastic holding arm protrudes from positioning frame and forms holding space. Positioning frame is located between at least a part of elastic holding arm and opening. Positioning frame is disposed in accommodation space. Positioning recess is located on a side of positioning frame close to opening and connected to holding space. At least a part of internal optical connector is located in holding space to be held in position by elastic holding arm. Positioning recess is configured to position external optical connector so as to allow internal optical connector to be plugged with and optically coupled to external optical connector.
