A scheme is proposed which allows for reliable transfer of quantum information between two atoms via an optical fibre in the presence of decoherence. The scheme is based on performing an adiabatic passage through two cavities which remain in their respective vacuum states during the whole operation. The scheme may be useful for networking several ion-trap quantum computers, thereby increasing the number of quantum bits involved in a computation.
