Abstract: The present invention relates to the provision of a ferrule that can be connected even when the space for the connection is small. A ferrule of the present invention is configured to hold a plurality of optical transmission members and to be connected to another ferrule. The ferrule includes a first surface facing the end of the optical transmission members when the optical transmission members are held; and a plurality of second surfaces disposed opposite to the first surface in the ferrule. In the ferrule, the optical transmission members extend in the Z direction, and the ferrule is configured to be moved in a direction orthogonal to the Z direction to be connected to the other ferrule.
