SUMMARY:FFB 2026 Week 42: From Classical to Quantum: An Infrastructure Roadmap for Fiber Operators
DESCRIPTION:FFB 2026 Week 41: From Classical to Quantum: An Infrastructure Roadmap for Fiber Operators\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nQuantum networking may sound like an entirely new infrastructure challenge\, but its most valuable asset is one many broadband providers already own: fiber. In this next episode\, Vincent Celindro\, Director of Strategic Sales & Technology of Quantum Foundry joins Gary Bolton\, President & CEO of the Fiber Broadband Association and explores how municipal\, rural\, cooperative\, commercial\, and research networks can evaluate their existing infrastructure for quantum readiness. Celindro will explain how fiber type\, total optical loss\, route length\, splice history\, and aerial versus buried construction affect a network’s potential; how classical and quantum traffic can coexist on the same fiber; and why amplifier huts and other facilities may become strategic quantum nodes. The discussion will also examine the operational changes quantum networking introduces for the NOC and the evolution from trusted relay nodes available today to quantum repeaters emerging for the future. \n\nWith special guest: \n \n		\n					\n				Register Now
