Abstract
An apparatus comprises one or more transceiver ports and at least one processing device comprising a processor coupled to a memory. The at least one processing device is configured to detect a transceiver light plug interconnected with a transceiver plugged into a given one of the transceiver ports, and to exchange, via a first set of connectors of the transceiver which are operably connected with a second set of connectors of the transceiver light plug, configuration information for light-based indicators arranged on a housing of the transceiver light plug. The at least one processing device is also configured to determine an operational status of the given transceiver port, and to provide, to the transceiver light plug via the first and second sets of connectors, control information for controlling operation of the light-based indicators based at least in part on the determined operational status of the given transceiver port.
