Abstract

An optical device module comprises a module body including an optical device, a first fiber connector holding a first optical fiber, coupled to one end of the optical device, and a second fiber connector holding a second optical fiber, coupled to the other end of the optical device; and an enclosure body integrally molded with a resin such as an epoxy resin, an urethan resin to coat the module body. Almost the whole module body is coated with the integrally molded epoxy resin, so that the module body is protected efficiently from external heat, moisture, mechanical shock etc.
