Wireless between buildings

I currently have two buildings connected with fiber. I want to have these buildings connected with wireless as well as a backup route in case the fiber connection fails. Any tips on how I could achieve this?

Kurt,
You can go for our Bridge or point to point product - ZF 7731 which is designed for your requirement.

The distance between buildings is about 200 feet. Would this work with a ZoneDirector 1100? Would we need a 2nd ZoneDirector in the remote building?

How would I handle the redundant links or would this be configured in my switches?

Thanks

Kurt, 7731 supports up to 190 Mbps at 1.5 kilometers, and offers performance up to 50 Mbps at 10 km (LoS) .There is no need of a Zone Director for managing the 7731s, they work independently.

7731 bridge just forwards the traffic to its pair 7731, so the redundancy with the fiber should be configured on the switch side.

Could those be mounted just inside the exterior wall or should they be mounted outside and pointed at each other? Thanks
