three AIT-KMS servers within the laboratory. In the background QKD devices by different manufacturers can be seen, that are within the same test network.

Deployment Tests for QCI-CAT started

The KMS is deployed on server hardware and tested in the laboratories of AIT.

For now 3 of the 10 nodes are setup to interact with two different QKD devices from two different manufacturers. The keys are received with the ETSI QKD 014 interface and distributed through one intermediate node. This is the starting point to setup and test the whole QCI-CAT network in the laboratories and in the field.
