One option is to run a cable between the locations, either Cat6 or Multimode Fiber if the location is further than 100m.
Another option is using a Wireless link. There are fixed wireless devices that have directed beams to reach out up to 10km distance between nodes.
Ubiquiti has a product called Nanobean that is quite popular and that you can use in this scenario.
In the Fiber or Wireless link option, it is assumed there are power outlets on both ends of the link. If power is only available on one end, then you could double down on Cat6, use PoE extenders to be able to run a Cat6 cable over 100m, and then have an PoE powered access point given enough power is left at the end of the cable run.
