[TriLUG] How to connect two buildings a mile apart...

[Daniel Monjar]

We have that... but we want to go at least 10MB not just 1.5Mb.... the 
issue is not moving servers and not constructing a new computer room with 
raised floors, air handling, ups, etc... We have that in building 1 (where 
the servers currently are) but we don't have it in building 4.  For 
adequate response either the servers need to be in the same building as the 
end users or we need to have a high-band link between buildings.
