Are there any vendors > out there that you're familiar with or have used/seen customers use? Western Multiplex (apparently bought out by Proxim) sells fairly high speed stuff. If I recall correctly, a complete 100mbit full duplex setup from them was around $25,000 installed, including everything (radios, antennas, etc.) The 'Lynx' series is designed to be used in place of telco links - IE, they provide T1/DS3/OC3 ports. The 'Tsunami' series gives you 10/100mbit or gigabit ethernet ports on each end; can provide up to 400mbit of bandwidth. Also gives you sideband T1 to boot if you want to do voice (or data t1, I suppose) connections between the buildings.
