They make a power isolation coil. Your best bet would be to use one of
those to pass power up the tower and use fiber to transmit data.
I worked with them on an AM tower in the past.

Any problems I expect will be ethernet related. What frequency is the tower?

Michael,
If you get any responses off-list, I would be happy to hear. I have a
similar situation, but down in Honduras. I posted nearly an exact
question to yours, and the consensus was.
1) Install Noise Suppression, and Shielded Twisted Pair
2) Install only when the Tower is unpowered
In
Tricky, but it's been done.
You'll have to insulate your installation of radios, cables and antennas.
and they will have to power down the tower while you install.
