light-emitting diode (LED)
A semiconductor device that produces light when voltage is applied. LEDs provide a visual 
indication of the operational status of hardware components, the results of maintenance tests, the 
alarm status of circuit packs, and the activation of telephone features.
lightwave transceiver
Hardware that provides an interface to fiber-optic cable from port circuit packs and DS1 converter 
circuit packs. Lightwave transceivers convert electrical signals to light signals and vice versa.
