The optical isolator body is structured by arranging the two permanent magnets in a long and narrow flat plate shape opposite each other at an interval and sandwiching the optical element between them, and the holder is structure by forming a recessed groove 36 on one side of a cylindrical part 34 having a center through hole 32. The optical isolator body can be inserted into and fixed in the recessed groove with the external surfaces of the permanent magnets exposed and mounted on a ferrule 40 on the opposite side of the holder from the recessed groove.
