This thesis presents the experimental achievements of (1) generating entangled-microwave\ fields propagating on two physically separate transmission lines and (2) verifying the entangled\ states with efficient measurements. Shared entanglement between two parties is an essential resource\ for quantum information processing and quantum communication protocols. Experimentally,\ entangled pairs of electromagnetic fields can be realized by distributing a squeezed vacuum\ over two separated modes. As a result, entanglement is revealed by the strong cross-correlations\ between specic quadratures of the two modes. Although it is possible to verify the presence of\ entanglement with low-efficiency quadrature measurements, higher detection efficiencies are desired\ for performing protocols that exploit entanglement with high fidelity.\
