300' of cat-5e or cat-6 cable should be fine.  Max total cable length 
between devices is 328' or 100m before signal loss.  If you put a router 
at the near end of the shop, it should provide nice local wifi in the 
shop or let you plug in a laptop or remote security camera.

If you go fiber, you can easily go 500-2000m depending on the type of 
fiber and speed.  You can either pull a premade cable or terminate it 
yourself.  Check out a couple videos - not too hard anymore.  There is 
delicate fiber that needs to be in conduit or heavy duty outdoor fiber 
that can run on utility poles or for direct burial.
