Original Abstract Submitted

An optical connector module connected to an optical component is disclosed. The optical connector includes at least one optical fiber, a connector that holds the optical fiber, the connector being configured to be connected to the optical component in a first direction, and a connecting member configured to maintain a connected state between the connector and the optical component when the connector is connected to the optical component. The connecting member is configured to rotate in contact with the connector and to be engaged with each of the connector and the optical component.
