If you don't want wireless, then fibre is definately the way to go. If
100Mb/s would hack it, then a couple of D-link or ATI media converters
shouldn't cost too much.

Have a look at 'blackl box'

Google for UERL. they sell all te bits yoiuy need for something like this.

Certainly ethernet to fiber bridges are available..as long as there is a
switch at each end, you don't need anything more than that.

Biggest problem is termination at each end, but over that range a
perfect joint is not absolutely necessary.

If space in the conduit is a problem, make sure you use use fibe with
ST connectors these are only about 1/4" diameter and you can always
split the figure of eight "cable" so that you can feed them through
individualy. if push comes to shove, you could probably isolate,
disconnect and remove the mains, pull the fibre in and then pull the
mains back in.

Check the fibre is ok first!!
