The data is sent through fiber optic cable while the quantum-entangled particle is used for encryption/decryption only. No information is passed faster than the speed of light.

Quantum Teleportation Moves Out Of Lab As Scientists Achieve Long-Distance Information Transfer Via City Optic Fiber Couldn’t this theoretically be used to house a quantum particle at your house and then ‘connect’ to another server, but then transmit faster than the speed of light and with lots of data eventually? Then our fiber infrastructure would just be for connections only, and not have to actually carry the data?
