Abstract
This paper reports an investigation about the incorporation of Quantum Key Distribution into existing telecommunication infrastructures, analysing the solutions and performance in each network segment to define QKD end-to-end physical paths compatible with the 5G slicing concept. The costs have been analysed for these infrastructures with specific details for the Italy case.
