Dear Lan people,

I have  the following situation:

      |=========================|  <-----Ethernet 802.3
                 ||||
                 ||||
                 |||| <------- 4 wires (600 meters) under a road.
                 ||||
                 ||||
       |========================|  <-----Ethernet 802.3

I will like to connect the 2 Ethernet segments with these 4 wires.
I can not put a repeater in the middle of the road and I want to have a
10 Mbit/sec connection.

Any suggestions?
I do not want to put a baseband modem at 128 Kbits/sec to have a connection.

Regards
