Abstract

The invention provides an optical transceiver which makes it possible to simplify a production process. An optical transceiver of the present invention includes an optical socket to mount an optical plug disposed at one end portion of an optical fiber); a light-condensing device; and an optical element to emit light in accordance with a supplied electrical signal and an optical element to generate an electrical signal in accordance with a received light signal; and a light-transmissive substrate to support the optical socket, the light-condensing device, and the optical elements so that the optical fiber, the light-condensing device, and the optical elements are aligned on an optical axis of the optical transceiver.
