BT has opened a network control centre (NCC) in Amsterdam. It will monitor global data traffic at the services layer.

It will complement a transport layer NCC opened two years ago in Diegem, in Belgium.

Both sites will back up each other, with a third facility at a currently undisclosed location acting as a fallback for both.

In a statement, BT Global Services CEO Andy Green said Amsterdam had been chosen because of its "central position, right education level and the multinational character of the city".

Both NCCs will plug in to a single management system which covers BT operations around the world, in 150 countries.

BT's reach, for services such as IP virtual private networking for multinationals, was increased late last year with the purchase of Infonet.
