Which problem emerges when entangled photons, spanning long fiber optic cables, exceed coherence length?

💡 Explanation

Signal decoherence disrupts entanglement via environmental interactions before measurement, because the distance exceeds the coherence length. Therefore, entanglement distribution fails, rather than pulse broadening or nonlinearities, which are separate transmission limitations under other conditions.
