The deal, which will start with the broadcast of the Australia v Great Britain World Group first round tie in February next year, covers home and away ties as well as the live rights to the matches.
Said Jan Menneken, ITF Executive Director, Commercial: "The national passion for the Davis Cup demands that it should be seen by as many people as possible, and it is the ITF's strategy to place the coverage on terrestrial broadcasting platforms."
The BBC has enjoyed highly successful ratings for its coverage of the Davis Cup ties in the past and will be hoping that the British team's presence in the World Group aids the audience numbers for the upcoming matches.
