Abstract

Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) has emerged as the technology to offer ultimate security, posing additional challenges in the physical layer due to its single-photon nature. Co-existence with classical data and switching aspects are discussed in dynamic-QKD applications for inter- data-centre communications and switched entanglement-based quantum distribution.
