Digital Equipment Company sells two ethernet repeaters.  Their local ethernet 
repeater (DEREP-AA) can connect two 500 meter segments of Baseband Ethernet 
coax.  Their Remote Ethernet Repeater (DEREP-RA) uses a fiber optic cable to 
connect two  segments that are up to 1000 meters apart.  I got these out of 
DEC's Networks and Communications Buyer's Guide.  Your local DEC rep should be 
able to get this for you.

I am not affiliated with DEC in any way other than using their products.
