Broadband communications company Charter Communications has acquired broadband systems serving approximately 16,000 customers in Missouri from US Cable of Coastal Texas.

Charter provides a range of advanced broadband services, including advanced Charter TV video entertainment programming, Charter Internet access, and Charter Phone.

The company’s Business similarly provides scalable, tailored, and cost-effective broadband communications solutions to business organizations, such as business-to-business Internet access, data networking, business telephone, video and music entertainment services, and wireless backhaul.

Charter said it will ensure a smooth transition for customers from the former US Cable operations in Hannibal, Mexico, Moberly and surrounding areas.

The company also anticipates building on the products and services US Cable has offered in these communities.

Charter Operations president Steven Apodaca said their objective is to provide value to customers and enhance their experience with Charter.

"This acquisition is aligned with our strategy of strengthening and growing core system clusters to enable significant operational synergies," Apodaca said.
