Mikrotik has Powerbox Pro, and UBNT has similar tower-top outdoor
PoE distribution models. They'll both take DC wires, and they'll
both take fiber. If you don't like fiber, you can stick one of
those outdoor units mid-way up the tower as a regenerator.<br>

Ken,

<div class="">First thought is I’d look at doing something like a
small enclosure at the level of your sectors with something like
the hEX PoE (<a href="https://mikrotik.com/product/RB960PGS"
class="" moz-do-not-send="true">https://mikrotik.com/product/RB960PGS</a>) in
there. Run fiber and power up the tower to the enclosure, then
have short runs of cat-5/6 from the enclosure out to the
sectors.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">

<div class="">Fiber also provides your isolation on the DC side,
so then all you have to worry about protecting is the power.</div>
