Quantum Communication Backbones
Fiber and satellite links for distributing quantum keys at scale.
Infrastructure that uses quantum key distribution (QKD) over optical fibers and satellite links to create ultra-secure communication channels. These backbones require specialized repeaters, single-photon detectors, and integration with classical networks to support future quantum-safe telecom services.
