Quantum Internet Prototype Runs For 15 Days Under New York City 🌐

Summary:


  1. Successful Trial
    Qunnect Inc. tested a quantum network prototype in a 34-kilometer fiber loop in New York City, operating for 15 days with a 99.84% uptime and 99% fidelity in entangled photon pairs.

  2. Innovative Technology
    The network used polarization-entangled photons and automated polarization compensation devices to handle polarization drift and noise, crucial for maintaining entanglement over long distances.

  3. Future Potential
    This demonstration is a step towards a practical quantum internet, with Qunnect’s technology showing significant progress towards a fully automated entanglement network.
