We installed a microwave link between buildings in Florida, it's worked swimmingly well (no pun intended). I would highly recommend looking at that option.
And yes, it is very humid and wet down here, as you might imagine.

I would guess other vendors have the same. Another option would be using a microwave link. Cost is much higher but bandwidth with one of these is also much higher. Down side is high humidity or obstructions cause major problems with any linkage. Since you are in AZ you should be relativity safe from the humidity issue. Roof top to roof top mounts with fiber up and down would most likely take care of most obstructions.

I need to set up a Wireless Repeater, or set up a wireless bridge to another building with a WiFi hotspot in the second building. The buildings are about 100 yards apart, and there are some desert trees between them. Recommendations for gear welcome.
