Summary:PURPOSE:To improve the positioning accuracy of optical connectors and to stabilize coupling by providing the 1st optical connector which has a fiber connecting member provided with 1st guide holes, a 1st member which has 2nd guide holes and connects optical fibers and the 2nd optical connector which has springs mounted between the 1st member and the 2nd member. CONSTITUTION:This device is constituted by including the 1st optical connector 9 which has the fiber connecting member 1 having a pair of the 1st guide holes to be inserted with coupling pins and the 2nd optical connector 10 which is held by a holding member 11. The 2nd optical connector 10 is constituted by having the 1st member 1 which has a pair of the 2nd guide holes formed at nearly the same intervals as the intervals of the 1st guide holes and is connected with optical fibers, the 2nd member 5 which is held by the holding member and further, springs 3, 4 mounted between the 1st member 1 and the 2nd member 5. The improvement in the positioning accuracy and the stabilization of the coupling are compatibly attained in this way.
