Abstract:
An optical connection component includes a plurality of optical fibers and a capillary. Each of the optical fibers includes a glass fiber and a resin coating covering the glass fiber. Each of the optical fibers is provided with a coated portion where the glass fiber is covered with the resin coating, and a coating removed portion where the glass fiber is exposed from the resin coating. The coating removed portion is located closer to an end face of the optical fiber than the coated portion. The glass fiber has an outer diameter of less than 124 μm. The capillary has a first end face and a second end face opposing to each other, and a plurality of holes having an opening at the first end face and extending towards the second end face. The holes respectively receive the coating removed portions of the optical fibers.
