Highlights:

  • Introduces CV-QKD as a cost-effective, photonic-friendly approach to securing optical networks.
  • Demonstrates how SDN-enabled control fosters coexistence of quantum and classical channels via flexible resource allocation.
  • Offers insights into wavelength spacing, block size considerations, and dynamic network orchestration, supporting pragmatic deployment for future quantum-safe infrastructure.
