An optical waveguide or first optical fiber whose one end optically
connects with a light exit plane and/or light incidence plane of an
optical element and whose other end optically connects with an second
optical fiber and a connector for mechanically connecting the optical
waveguide or the first optical fiber and the second optical fiber are
included. The optical waveguide or first optical fiber is bent in order
to change the traveling direction of light so that the light incoming
from one end is emitted from the other end substantially in parallel with
a board and the light incoming substantially in parallel with the board
to the optical waveguide or first optical fiber from the other end is
emitted from one end toward the optical element.
