I don't get why everyone is worried about a single cat5 connecting the closets, there's a thing called a Switch and an uplink, unless I'm missing something and I'm just being an obnoxious smart ass.
The single cat5 is required to share Audio AND Network at each location. This is what is the limiting factor. I understand that I can install a network switch at each location to provide multiple ports, but I was also wanting to share the sources between the two head ends, and with only one cat5 at each location back to the demarc finding a solution that is able to transmit network and audio over a single cat5 is being difficult.
