Please help!
I am extending the network at our office to the building next door, which is about 20 or 25 metres away. What is my best option - run Cat5 cabling from ethernet switches between each building, or a wireless point-to-point system?
The suggestions so far are cabling inside pvc tubing between the buildings for the outside area, with a switch at the new building.
What really is the best option? Factoring in lifespan, practicality, product availability, and of course price?
