A cable clip having a locking jaw structure capable of securing a coaxial cable for subsequent mounting to a surface is disclosed. The cable clip is formed with upper and lower jaw portions defining a cable-retaining opening adapted for receiving at least one cable therein. The jaw portions are connected so as to be generally configurable between an open configuration wherein at least one cable may be insertably received, and a closed configuration wherein the cable is received and secured within the clip body. An automatically engaging locking mechanism and interlocking teeth on the upper and lower jaw portions provide for the alignment of the jaws and securing of the cable prior to mounting. The upper and lower jaw portions each define a fastener-receiving aperture for securing the clip (and cable) to a mounting surface.

1. A cable clip for retaining a cable against a mounting surface, said cable clip comprising: a clip body having upper and lower jaws, said clip body further defining a cable retaining aperture for retaining at least one cable, said jaws configurable between open and a closed configurations; said upper jaw defining a first fastener-receiving aperture; said lower jaw defining a second fastener-receiving aperture; a plurality of teeth protecting from said upper and lower jaws, said teeth configured to interlock such that said upper jaw is prevented from moving longitudinally rearward relative to said lower jaw; means for locking said upper and lower jaws in said closed configuration. 2. A cable clip according to claim 1, wherein said means for locking said upper and lower jaws comprises a post member projecting upwardly from said lower jaw and a lip defined by said upper jaw, said post member engaging said lip in said closed configuration.3. A cable clip for retaining a cable against a mounting surface, said cable clip comprising: a clip body having hingedly connected upper and lower jaws defining a cable retaining aperture therebetween for retaining at least one cable, said jaws configurable between open and a closed configurations; said upper jaw defining an upper fastener-receiving aperture; said lower jaw defining a lower fastener-receiving aperture; said upper and lower jaws each including a plurality of teeth disposed for interlocking aligned engagement when said upper and lower jaws are in said closed configuration such that said upper jaw is fixed longitudinally relative to said lower jaw such that said upper jaw is prevented from moving longitudinally forward and rearward relative to said lower jaw; and means for locking said upper and lower jaws in said closed configuration. 4. A cable clip according to claim 3, wherein said means for locking said upper and lower jaws in said closed configuration includes one of said jaws including a projecting post member having a beveled surface and the other of said jaws having a lip, whereby closure of said jaws results in engagement of said beveled surface with said lip thereby urging said post member into position for locking engagement with said lip.5. A cable clip according to claim 3, wherein said upper fastener receiving aperture is a generally circular aperture and said lower fastener receiving aperture is an elongate slotted aperture.6. A cable clip according to claim 3, wherein said cable retaining aperture for retaining at least one cable includes first and second portions adapted for receiving two coaxial cables in substantially adjacent, side-by-side relation and a third portion adapted for receiving a wire.
