Nokia and KDDI Corporation today announced that they have demonstrated quantum-safe optical transport capabilities at its new Sakai Data Center, a next-generation facility designed to support advanced AI workloads.
The demonstration underscores KDDI’s commitment to building a future-proof digital infrastructure capable of handling the demands of real-time AI training, inference, and data analytics. The reliability and built-in cryptography of the network architecture are designed to safeguard personal data, critical national infrastructure and sensitive AI workloads.
Leveraging Nokia’s 1830 Photonic Service Switch (PSS) with C+L Band and 1830 Security Management Server (SMS), KDDI validated the delivery of a secure, scalable, and AI-ready infrastructure. Nokia’s optical technologies enable high-capacity transport while ensuring data privacy, resiliency, and at-speed quantum-safe encryption across KDDI’s distributed data centers.
