The exact AP model may depend on the requirements, the configuration is supported. You should aim for a model that allow to use external antennas with high gains like FANT-04ABGN-1414-P-N or FANT-08ABGN-1213-D-R to maximize the distance but than it will still heavily relate on the surrounding environment. Testing the distance coverage and achievable supported speeds should be done on site.
