Hotel and leisure chain De Vere has signed a contract extension worth £1.8m with Vanco, following on from a deal worth £1.1m signed in spring 2003.

The deal will see De Vere changing from an ADSL core data network to an MPLS-based one, giving the chain quadruple bandwidth.

The ADSL network will be used as a back-up, replacing ISDN. Some of the chain's less bandwidth-hungry sites will remain on the ADSL platform, cutting network costs.

The contract will last until 2008.
