We have quotes from a couple of wireless point-to-point providers, but I am also looking at alternatives, such as laser, as I am concerned about wireless performance, especially with a tramline running between the two buildings!
Am I right in assuming that the roadway rules out the possibility of running a fibre cable between the buildings? I don't know what form of state/local government approval you would need for that, even if you could easily run it high overhead for example.
Last time I looked (a looong time ago) running cable over public land also turned you into a carrier, i.e. like telecom australia, and you had to support 000 on the line and crap like that. Which is why you had these long cable runs out in the bush that turn into a 2m laser link every time they had to hop a road.
