Charter Communications has agreed to acquire privately held Cox Communications for $21.9 billion, combining two of the largest cable and broadband providers in the US as the industry grapples with intensifying competition from streaming platforms and mobile carriers.

Cox Communications has been a potential takeover target for years. But despite several attempts from multiple suitors, the company always remained steadfast in rejecting all buyout proposals.

Cable companies Charter and Cox announced a $34.5 billion mega-merger on Friday. If approved, the combination will create an even more formidable rival for Comcast.
