1000 to 2000 ft distance is really optimistic for PtMP in 60 GHz even... With FCC EIRP limits for 60 GHz PTP the longest it's good for around here is 600 meters. A little bit more out to 800-900m with the weird Bridgewave 60 GHz product that combines regular maximum Tx power but uses a 60 cm dish on each end for more gain.
But that is with the gain of a parabolic dish at 60 GHz, which is considerable, some sort of sector or phased array flat panel antenna will have a great deal less gain in the 60 GHz band.
