Abstract:
A stub device includes: a holder having a first portion and a second portion, the first portion and the second portion being arranged in a direction of a first axis, the first portion having a first end face and a second end face, and the second portion having an installation face; and optical fibers held by the holder to extend in the direction of the first axis. Core ends of the optical fibers and the first end face are arranged along a first reference plane. The second end face and the installation face extend along second and third reference planes, respectively, which are inclined with the first reference plane at acute angles. The second end face is apart from cores of the optical fibers in the first portion, and the installation face having a surface roughness larger than that of the second end face.

Claim (Index 1):
A stub device comprising:\n a holder including a first portion and a second portion, the first portion and the second portion being arranged in a direction of a first axis, the first portion having a first end face and a second end face, and the second portion having an installation face; and optical fibers held by the holder so as to extend in the direction of the first axis, the optical fibers having core ends, and the core ends and the first end face of the holder being arranged along a first reference plane, the second end face of the holder extending along a second reference plane, the second reference plane being inclined with the first reference plane at an acute angle, and the second end face of the holder being apart from cores of the optical fibers in the first portion, the installation face being apart from cores of the optical fibers in the second portion and extending along a third reference plane, and the third reference plane being inclined with the first reference plane at an acute angle, the optical fibers being arranged along a fourth reference plane, the fourth reference plane being inclined with the first reference plane at an acute angle, and the installation face having a surface roughness larger than that of the second end face.
