Abstract
In an optical connector with optical fibers in which silica glass optical fibers with resin coating layers remaining attached are connected in optical fiber openings of a ferrule made from resin, at least a part of the resin coating layer of the optical fiber is glued to an inner face of the optical fiber opening, an outer diameter of the resin coating layer of the optical fiber is less than or equal to 125 μm, and the Young's modulus of the resin coating layer is less than the Young's modulus of the ferrule, and the Young's modulus of the resin coating layer is 1500 to 10000 MPa.
