Abstract
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a process for providing status indication, that includes receiving a control signal at a proximal end of an elongated flexible circuit assembly including a distal portion attached to and extending along at least a portion of an elongated, panel-facing edge of a planar circuit board. The process further includes directing the control signal around a bent portion of the elongated flexible circuit assembly and to a number of visual status indicators distributed along at least a distal end of the elongated flexible circuit assembly, wherein at least a portion of the number of visual status indicators is actuated, responsive to the control signal, to provide a visual indication of a status of equipment supported by the planar circuit board. Other embodiments are disclosed.
