Enabling fiber-based distribution of entangled single photons is crucial for advancing quantum repeater-based quantum communication. Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) offer on-demand polarization-entangled photon pairs, but their near-infrared emission hinders telecommunication network compatibility. Here, compatibility is achieved by employing quantum frequency conversion (QFC). We show the conservation of polarization entanglement after QFC of the biexciton emission, making it compatible to telecommunication networks. This is utilized to prove high entanglement fidelity after propagation through a 35 km urban fiber network. Also, entanglement conservation is cofirmed after back conversion in a second QFC to 780 nm preparing an interface for a Rb-based quantum memory.
