LC is Little Click. As opposed to ST = Stab and Twist and SC = Stab and 
Click.

I haven't seen such a thing for GBIC to SFP and the height may be 
insufficient to do so, but in the 10G realm there are adapters that 
convert an X2 slot to accept SFP+.

I've never seen a native GBIC with LC connectors.

There are these things, but you have to remove the clip on the LC side 
to separate them. https://www.fs.com/products/32579.html
