| Quantum Key Distribution is possibly the best positioned technology to build extremely secure communications networks, however, the weakness of the signals in the quantum channel poses some constraints that for the moment hinder its widespread adoption. One of the problems is the use of a separate physical channel for the quantum channel. In optical fiber communications this usually implies the need of an extra separate fiber as a carrier of the quantum channel, which is both expensive and unconvenient since it is not straightforwardly integrated in a commonly managed infrastructure. The purpose of this contribution is to present our current effort in searching the integration of QKD in real testbeds built out of standard modules in a way as close as possible to a production system. | |
