Gated Community Wifi for CCTV and hotspot

Model :
Hardware Version :
Firmware Version :
ISP :
We live in a small gated community and currently use an old analog DVR CCTV solution which is practically EOL
We now intend to switch to an IP network for the CCTVs and while we are at it,we are also hoping to setup a community WLAN that can be used for provisioning Internet Access in the common/opean areas.
The total number of IP cameras is 8 with the possibility of extending it to say 12 if needed
The total number of residents is around 150 with say a maximum of 50 concurrent users and an average of 15-20
The attached image should help visualize it.
The server room is in the Community area while the cameras are mounted in the central area of Block A-B-C
All the houses are two floor units although some of the trees that can be seen just to the right of the Community area are fairly tall - However It's a single row of trees so while it impacts the line-of-sight but does not block it completely
I currently have two options
1) Run CAT6 from server room to Block A and B + OFC with media converter to Block C along the outer boundary - Then add a switch in each block that hooks wired to the Camera as well as few Access Points to provision WLAN access for that zone
2) Opt for a fully wireless model - i.e. setup a point-to-point link from server room to each block and then use a few APs in each block to spread the network- I spoke to a vendor today who said he could set allof this up using a combination of Ubiquiti Nanostation M2 and M5
While I would certainly prefer to avoid going the cable route , somehow I was not fully convinced by the technical capabilities of the vendor in question
In addition, pricing for TP-Link Pharos products is significantly more attractive in my country (India)
Coming to my doubts now:
A) Would a Pharos based setup in the layout be reliable enough for a CCTV NVR setup?
B) What would be the recommended set of products
C) What is the realistic stable throughput I can expect
D) Using the rooftops for the point to point, I can get near Line-of-sight but with a bit of disruption from a single layer of tree foliage- Is that not a major concern or should I look at using poles to the roof top to go above the treeline
It's probably worth mentioning that this is located in the middle of a big city in India and we are surrounded by several tall residential towers so expect a lot of 802.11 noise and interefernce in the neighborhood

Dear,
I am using CPE510 to connect far CCTV DVR to the control room
at the DVR side I configuired the CPE as Client and in the control rome side as AP.
I could see the DVR in the same network but I need to see it via static IP through the internet
the DVR IP is 192.168.0.137
Client IP is 192.168.0.253
AP IP is 192.168.0.254
I connected AP to my router so do I need to make port forwarding or any further configuiration
Nayef
