| 1. A lighting apparatus comprising:
a cavity formed by a light emitting front side,
a reflective backside arranged opposite to the front side and a sidewall, and
a plurality of light emitting semiconductor components disposed completely within the cavity and mounted on the sidewall in
such a way that the light of the plurality of light emitting semiconductor components is irradiated in the cavity,
wherein the reflective backside is formed in such a way that the cavity is divided into at least two portions directing the
light to the front side, and
wherein at least one optical element in the form of a cylindrical lens is optically connected to the semiconductor components.
