Ultra-secure quantum messages sent a record distance over a fiber optic network

IEEE ComSoc

A recently published article in Nature states that scientists have sent quantum information across a record-breaking 158 miles using ordinary computers and fiber-optic cables. Quantum data was sent over an ordinary telecom network with fiber-optic cables. Superconducting detectors arent affected by afterpulsing, Pittaluga said.

Key Uses for Distributed Antenna Systems

Tridon

Not because the radios are faulty, but because the signal simply cant make it in or out of the building. Theyre the silent backbone of modern emergency communicationespecially in large buildings where traditional radio signals fall flat. A DAS network solves this by distributing the signal inside the building itself.
