PURPOSE: To achieve high-precision positioning by utilizing for the positioning of an optical fiber the side-edge groove of a member for arraying the optical fiber which has grooves for arraying an holding optical fibers.
CONSTITUTION: This structure is provided with an optical fiber 6, members 7 and 7' for arraying optical fibers, a reference member 8, a guide pin 9 for the opposite connector, and a blocks 10 and 10' for sandwiching the members 7 and 7'. In the members 7 and 7', V-shaped grooves 11 for holding optical fibers 6 and formed precisely at equal intervals and side-end parts 7a and 7'a are cut in the centers of the V-shaped grooves. The members 7 and 7' hold optical fibers 6 in the respective grooves and at the side-end parts and, while pressed against the reference surface 8a of the reference member 8 as shown by an arrow P, are sandwiched between the blocks 10 and 10'.
