Getting internet to an out building

[Supa Dexta]

Can someone confirm in order to get internet sent wirelessly to inside another building (only 200 ft away) I buy 2 of something like this:

https://www.amazon.ca/UBIQUITI-Nbe-5...quiti+nanobeam

Have one on the house plugged into the router, and then another one on the other building (hooked to a camera dvr in this case) Maybe not the specific one, but for the general layout thats all that needs to be done to bridge the gap?

Is there any spec I should be watching for in order to support 1080p cameras? I currently have 5 hooked up, but dvr can handle 8. For now I've just had a cat6 ran along the ground to get everything up and running, but I can't keep it setup like that.

I think so.

I remember few years back we had big wifi antenna to connect two office buildings two block awa, as cable connection could not be done in time. Work well.

I'm just confused on if I'm supposed to have 2 of the exact same units, or a different thing on each end. Videos online tend to show 2 different things, and calling one a transmitter, but they both have to transmit to send stuff back and forth? But they may also be talking about a transmitter sending out to 2 or 3 of the nanobeams for a multi point set up.

This might help. Should be one nanobeam on each end.

The ubnt forums and reddit are pretty good for questions/advice as well.

Do you absolutely have to go with wireless?

I've done point to point wireless installs, as well as fiber installs to connect buildings in close proximity. I know you just mentioned cameras, but having wired/fiber would be the way to go if you could.

Even if you hack something up, and put some fiber in a PVC pipe and put it slightly underground....

I think home depot sells cat 6 in direct burial form. String it until the ground softens up.

Yea I agree with the above posters - I wouldn't try pushing 3x 1080p signals through a set-up like that. Cable it.

If I memory serves, with most units (not sure about this one) you lose 1/2 the speed anyway with the bi directional setup.

Now you guys are telling me the exact opposite of others who run similar setups, they say dont bother with a wire. lol Most of them are running 1000 ft or more though, Mine just happens to be closer.

I ordered a set of the nanobeam gen 2's.

200ft is well within the range of a cat6 run.

Yes I realize, but not when I have to dig up a couple driveways that see heavy traffic and the frost is still in the ground. $500 of more electronics should fix it.
