Light the fiber to get to that 2000ft mark, then use directional antennas
to cover the last 2000 ft via wireless. If necessary, you could even use
unlicensed 900 mhz gear that runs 802.11g speeds (search for the Ubiquiti
SR9), http://www.wlanparts.com/c=*/product/SR9 has it for $149 when in
stock.
Your best bet may be to try wireless the whole way and then try using the
fiber if wireless isn't going to cut it. If you end up needing repeater
stations, remember to factor in solar panel and battery costs sufficient to
last the maximum number of sunless or minimal sun days.

another thought, if you are in a bowl, all you need to find is line of
sight to one common place from both ends, and place a repeater there.
(you could also set two or three steps repeating the signal within
points which have line of sight). I'm not sure but I think one repeater
would be much cheaper than 20.000ft of copper + extenders + poles+
maintenance, lighning... (even thought you are in Copper Mountain !!,
BTW nice spot ).
if in the end you decide to go with ethernet, just beware of lighning!!!

fiber would be ideal. We have single-mode all over
the place. We even have some dark, unterminated strands within 2000ft
of this location it makes me want to cry. Unfortunately lighting it
up isnt an option we wouldnt gain anything because we couldnt
connect to anything else to get us the last stretch. Trenching 2000ft
isnt an option this is National Forest land and were not allowed
to do that.
As far as wireless no line of sight. This location sits in a little
bowl at 11,200.
So what Im left with is a 400pr, 22awg out to 3000. Then we jump on
200pr, 24awg aerial cable strung on the 3^rd longest high-speed quad
chairlift (10,800 run). The last leg involves a short underground to
another high-speed quad and down 6000. We can stick a powered
repeater in the motor room of the first lift (so I guess a bit further
than the original 12,000 I was thinking.)
Yes, we do strange things.
If youre really curious, heres a map of the campus environment we
maintain:

I would really look towards fiber, the bandwidth and distance can
easily be handled.

If you have line of sight between the points, maybe you could setup a
wireless link point to point, I know some people who have done it over
3 to 5 miles range, they get 10 Mbps, (but don´t know if you could get
more).
just a thought

Fiber? Otherwise maybe look at cisco LRE (Long reach ethernet), but I
think the limit for LRE is 5000ft (beats the heck out of regular
ethernets 300ft). Last I looked LRE was very expensive.

Two questions:
1. We need to run Ethernet out to a really long distance 20,000ft.
We have the ability to put a powered repeater in at about 12,000'. We
can run it using up to 4 pairs. Any recommendations on products that
will reach that far? We're looking for 5 10Mbps.
2. The products we're likely looking at might be something like
g.SHDSL, although I'm fine with a completely proprietary solution. Any
idea if it would add too much latency to run a SIP phone?
TIA
