Single-photon detector electronics board from QPN 5505 commercial quantum key distribution system


 

The actual components detecting photons, avalanche photodiodes, are in a separate box which is not included in this photo. This is the rest of detector electronics... unnecessarily complex in our view, but we did not design it :).

This picture from Cracking commercial quantum cryptography gallery and Quantum hacking lab gallery is included in Picture Collection on Photo Pages.
