Scientists accomplished quantum teleportation over busy internet lines, meaning special lines may not be required for quantum communication.

In a development that reshapes the landscape of modern communication, researchers have successfully demonstrated quantum teleportation of information through existing fiber optic networks. Unlike the teleportation of objects often seen in science fiction,

In simple terms, quantum teleportation involves sending information from one place to another using something called "quantum entanglement".

A quantum state of light has been successfully teleported through more than 30 kilometers (around 18 miles) of fiber optic cable amid a torrent of internet traffic – a feat of engineering once considered impossible.

However, a recent Northwestern University study has successfully demonstrated quantum teleportation over a fiber optic cable that also carries Internet traffic. The research opens the door to simpler infrastructure to enhance sensing technologies and quantum computing by enabling new quantum communication methods over existing Internet connections.

Professor Prem Kumar and his team successfully transmitted quantum information through a fiberoptic cable carrying high-speed Internet traffic.

Engineers at Northwestern University have demonstrated quantum teleportation over a fiber optic cable already carrying Internet traffic. This feat, published in the journal Optica, opens up

Northwestern University engineers are the first to successfully demonstrate quantum teleportation over a fiberoptic cable already carrying internet traffic.

Groundbreaking achievement in quantum teleportation successfully demonstrated over a fiber optic network, marking a significant leap in quantum communication technology.
