The only options I could think of where to get 200m of cat 5 and some decent hardware (I remember reading somewhere that it could be done), a very powerful wireless AP with directional antenna, or empty the bank account for some fibre optic and either switches with fibre support or some fibre to RJ-45 converters.

Anyone had an experience like this or any comments to add?
Microwave link?
