hi, there.
We have a remote site which has around 10 isolated tiny buildings, one of them has SM optical fiber back to backbone 5km away.
there is NO any physical structure to inter-connect those tiny building together, no copper, no optical fibre whatsoever, and each building would require just <5 IP & Voice connections, so what would be the cost effective and technology-proof solution? thanks.
our last resort is to lay optical fiber which would be very expensive.

You can use the Outdoor Access point configuration. Follow the configuration guide

You actually have several options. 1300 series and 1400 series bridges in point to multipoint mode or 1520 series MESH APs with a point to multipoint configuration and ethernet bridging turned on. If all you need is bridging then I would suggest the 1400 series. If you need outdoor coverage as well I would suggest the 1520 solution.

Have you considered using outdoor dish antennaes?
AIR-ANT3338 (2.4 GHz) & AIR-ANT58G28SDA (5.8 GHz) are outdoor, mast-mounted long range antennae (aka Dumbo).
Here are some of the links you may want to have a view on:

Hope this helps ... somewhat.
