A cable includes at least one inner conductor and an insulation layer surrounding the inner conductor. An outer conductive layer surrounds the insulation layer and center conductor and includes a carbon nanotube substrate having opposing face surfaces and edges. One or more metals are applied as layer(s) to the opposing face surfaces and edges of the carbon nanotube substrate for forming a metallized carbon nanotube substrate. The metallized carbon nanotube substrate is wrapped to surround the insulation layer and center conductor for forming the outer conductive layer. Embodiments of the invention include a braid layer positioned over the outer conductive layer. The braid layer is woven from of plurality of carbon nanotube yarn elements made of a plurality of carbon nanotube filaments. The carbon nanotube filaments include a carbon nanotube core and metal applied as a layer on the carbon nanotube core for forming a metallized carbon nanotube filaments and yarns woven to form the braid layer.
