Quantum Key Distribution in the Field: Deployment of the Eindhoven Testbed

Year: 2025

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: We present a vendor-agnostic heterogeneous quantum key distribution network based on trusted relay nodes. The network has a logical full-mesh topology, including classical connectivity through encrypted layer 2 tunnels, and was established using commercial equipment and an in-house developed key management system.
