An optical transmission system of the present invention includes input
ports to which laser beams are respectively input, condensing, input
optical elements, input reflectors corresponding one-to-one to the input
optical elements each, output reflectors, output optical elements, and
output ports. Assume that maximum one and minimum one of optical
distances between the input optical elements and the output optical
elements are DL and DS, respectively. Then, the beam waist position Q of
the laser beam output from the input optical element closest to the input
port satisfies a relation: 0.9(DL+DS)/4.ltoreq.Q.ltoreq.1.1(DL+DS)/4.
