The universal cable guide comprises a body of predetermined multi-dimensional shape, having a cable receiving channel formed in a major surface thereof and along its length. A primary cable guide fastening element is formed as an integral part of the body and located along an edge of the body to receive fasteners to secure the universal cable guide to a surface. A plurality of apertures are formed along the length of the body in a predetermined pattern to receive either fasteners to secure the universal cable guide to a surface or to receive fasteners to secure a mating cable protection element which can be placed on the top of the body. The mating cable protection element can be formed to cover the top surface of the body. This cable protection element can include apertures formed therein that match the plurality of apertures formed in the body to enable fasteners to be used to secure the two elements together and to a surface, or can be formed with integral fasteners which mate with the corresponding plurality of apertures formed in the body. The interconnection of the body and cable protection element form the resultant channel in which the communication cable is secured and protected.
