Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) is rapidly evolving, and we recently conducted an experimental evaluation of a DV-QKD commercial system from a telecom operator’s perspective. Our focus? Adaptability, coexistence with classical communications, and seamless integration into optical network architectures.
🚀 Key Insights:
✅ Tested on LoQomo1 by QuantLR™ (now HEQA-Security™ Sceptre Link)
✅ Implemented BB84 protocol with decoy states
✅ Evaluated performance in FOADM nodes & amplified routes
✅ Assessed multiplexing capabilities with DWDM classical channels
✅ Integrated QKD key retrieval supporting ETSI-004 & ETSI-014 standards
Our findings highlight how DV-QKD systems can be integrated into real-world telecom infrastructures, overcoming channel attenuation losses and enabling secure key management over optical networks.
The future of quantum-safe telecom is here! Excited to see how these advancements shape next-gen secure communications. What are your thoughts on QKD integration in telecom networks? Let’s discuss!
