nodeQ Unveils telaQ™ for Quantum Networking

In a groundbreaking announcement, nodeQ has positioned telaQ™ as the leading digital twin platform tailored for the planning of quantum and quantum-safe networks. This innovative platform is poised to transform the telecommunications landscape by allowing operators and large enterprises to effectively strategize their next-generation communication infrastructures.

What is telaQ™?

telaQ™ stands out as a robust solution that provides a physics-accurate and protocol-level scalable digital representation of quantum networks. This includes quantum-safe and hybrid classical-quantum networks, enabling users to conduct realistic modeling and emulation from initial pilot stages all the way through to significant large-scale deployments.

The platform empowers operators by allowing them to rigorously assess and enhance their architectural decisions, cryptographic methods, and protocol performance across several quantum technologies, including post-quantum cryptography (PQC), quantum key distribution (QKD), and emerging quantum networking technologies such as entanglement distribution and quantum information transmission.

Purpose-Built Versions

telaQ™ is offered in two specialized versions:

1. telaQ Security: Focused on designing and planning quantum-safe networks, this version enables operators to effectively implement PQC and QKD while addressing vital aspects of security, performance, and scalability.

2. telaQ Computing: This variant is dedicated to the design and optimization of scalable quantum computing networks, facilitating the interconnection of quantum processors, quantum data centers, and distributed quantum computing environments.

The Need for telaQ™

As telecom operators and enterprises navigate the rapidly evolving landscape of quantum technologies, long-term architectural decisions become essential. S. Pirandola from nodeQ highlights that telaQ™ is the most advanced commercially available digital twin for planning quantum networks, which helps organizations mitigate risks around security and computing architectures before they physically implement those systems.

telaQ™ is already utilized in various applications within the telecommunications sector, aiding in the planning and risk mitigation of next-generation network designs. This covers use cases like technology migration planning, resilience testing, alongside evaluations of security and performance as networks evolve to accommodate quantum-safe communications and forthcoming quantum computing infrastructures.

A New Era of Network Analysis

Diverging from traditional network observability tools or cryptographic inventory systems, telaQ™ introduces pre-deployment what-if analyses, network emulation, and performance optimization. This innovative approach furnishes operators with predictive insights into how novel technologies will influence network behavior at scale.

The design of telaQ™ accommodates a diverse range of organizations, including telecom operators, cloud and data center network providers, critical infrastructure operators, enterprises, and government bodies as they brace for the impending transition to quantum-safe communications and the concurrent rise of scalable, networked quantum computing.

Strong Scientific Foundations

Underlying nodeQ's leadership in quantum networking is a solid technical bedrock. The team's expertise has led to contributions in over 350 peer-reviewed papers in areas such as quantum communications, networking, and distributed computing, which fortify the development of telaQ™. This extensive research history informs the platform's design and operational capabilities, thereby harmonizing advanced theoretical insights with practical deployment requirements. Furthermore, the influential role played by the team in the scientific community has been acknowledged with prestigious awards, including the IET Achievement Medal in Quantum Technology awarded to S. Pirandola in 2025.
