Patent attributes
An optical connector for optically coupling light between an optical fiber and an opto-electronic device (OED) includes a lens body having a first lens array, a second lens array, and a reflecting surface on the optical path between the first lens array and the second lens array for reflecting the light between the optical fiber and the OED; and a seat separated from the lens body and located under the lens body for receiving the lens body therein. The seat includes an alignment feature as a datum for aligning the OED and an alignment structure for aligning the lens body, and wherein there is a predetermined position relationship between the alignment feature and the alignment structure so that the lens body aligns with the OED when the lens body is assembled in the seat.
