1. An LED light and communication system comprising:
- at least one optical transceiver comprising a light support having at least one light emitting diode and at least one photodetector attached thereto, said at least one light emitting diode generating light as illumination, said illumination comprising a plurality of flashes of illumination, said flashes of illumination not being observable to the unaided eyes of an individual; and
a processor in communication with the at least one light emitting diode and the at least one photodetector, the processor constructed and arranged to regulate said plurality of flashes of illumination to generate at least one communication signal embedded within said illumination, said at least one communication signal comprising at least one optical transceiver location identifier, wherein said at least one optical transceiver is in communication with a broadband over power line communications system, said processor being further constructed and arranged to receive at least one communication from said broadband over power line communications system and to transmit said at least one communication through the regulation of said plurality of flashes of illumination as at least a portion of said at least one communication signal.
