If the twisted pairs are suitable, a vanilla T1 ckt at 1.544mhz could go over that. In Europe you folks use something near 2.048, but I don't know about the cable driving. Here we get about 6000 feet between repeaters. We also use T1C that is 2 x T1, but there are near end crosstalk problems where your 2 pairs would get in trouble near each end (ear in mouth disease). You then need a vanilla remote bridge or possibly router pair. Since your distance is so short compared to 6000', that maybe you can find something less common to drive them nearer 10mhz. Good luck.
