Abstract
We here present a novel security-enhanced EPON architecture with the promising QKD function. Using the special branch device and alternative TDMA in upstream, it brings the coexistence between QKD and EPON. Experiment shows that under the QBER safe limit, the mean secure key rate can reach up to 2.12kbps over 20km while EPON functions normally.
