Claim Text:
1. A coaxial cable comprising: a core conductive layer comprising first conductive composite fiber strands, each first conductive composite fiber strand comprising a plurality of first non-conductive fibers arranged together in a substantially flat configuration and coated with a first conductive metal, the first conductive metal applied to outer surfaces of the first non-conductive fibers after the first non-conductive fibers are arranged together, the first conductive composite fiber strands braided together to form an empty via in a middle portion of the core conductive layer; an outer conductive layer comprising braided second conductive composite fiber strands, each second conductive composite fiber strand comprising a plurality of second non-conductive fibers coated with a second conductive metal; and a non-conductive layer disposed between the core conductive layer and the outer conductive layer, the non-conductive layer comprising braided strands of third non-conductive fibers, wherein the braided first and second conductive composite fiber strands are the only conductors configured to transport electrical signals through the coaxial cable.
