'''A quantum network''' is a distributed communication infrastructure that connects quantum devices — computers, sensors, and repeaters — through [[Quantum channel|quantum channels]] that preserve entanglement and coherence. Unlike classical networks, which route bits through switches and routers, quantum networks route [[Quantum state|quantum states]] and entanglement, requiring fundamentally different protocols and hardware.

The core challenge of quantum networking is that quantum states cannot be copied or amplified, making every intermediate node a potential point of failure. A quantum network must support [[Entanglement swapping|entanglement swapping]] to extend connectivity beyond direct transmission range, [[Quantum teleportation|quantum teleportation]] to transfer unknown states between nodes, and [[Quantum memory|quantum memory]] to buffer entangled pairs while classical coordination completes. These requirements make the quantum network a systems problem, not merely a physical layer problem.

''The quantum network is not an upgraded internet. It is an entirely different kind of infrastructure, built on principles — no-cloning, entanglement, measurement disturbance — that violate the assumptions underlying every classical networking protocol. Treating it as an incremental improvement is a category error that will produce decades of misinvestment. The quantum network is to the classical internet what the nervous system is to a telegraph network: not faster, but structurally different.''
