    Abstract: A quantum communications system includes a first quantum repeater and a second quantum repeater each positioned at a repeater node and each having a first quantum memory and a second quantum memory. A first channel switch is optically coupled to the first quantum repeater and a second channel switch is optically coupled to the second quantum repeater. Further, a first sub-channel extends between and optically couples the first channel switch and the first quantum memory of the first quantum repeater, a second sub-channel extends between and optically couples the first channel switch and the first quantum memory of the second quantum repeater, a third sub-channel extends between and optically couples the second channel switch and the second quantum memory of the first quantum repeater, and a fourth sub-channel extends between and optically couples the second channel switch and the second quantum memory of the second quantum repeater.
