NLPQT Project: equipping PSNC laboratories with sets of measurement and transmission devices

As part of the activities carried out in the NLPQT project, PSNC equipped its laboratories with advanced sets of measurement and transmission devices. The equipment was purchased to build a quantum key distribution network. It is a practical application of quantum communication technology to set up encrypted connections secured by the laws of quantum mechanics.

The devices will enable PSNC to continue work in the field of QKD technologies, in particular its integration with the existing optical data transmission systems and services. PSNC takes part in several European projects related to QKD technology and thanks to the acquired infrastructure, it will combine activities in national and European projects.
