Those two parts are packed into a package so that an optical element mounted surface and a filter surface are substantially parallel to each other, and the optical elements are arranged to emit or receive lights obliquely to the base. With this configuration, because the optical multiplexer and demultiplexer can be mounted in parallel to an X-Y plane, a package can be easily machined by using a lathe, thereby enabling a reduction in the costs.
