CAT 5 for HDMI

Thanks, but I have a new question now. After some googling I found HDMI over cat 5 wall plates. I am finishing my basement, can I put cat 5 in the walls from the TV area and then back to the couch area, and have HDMI wall plates at either end and then use short pices of HDMI wires to complete the hook-up. This will allow me to use the laptop on the couch and and use the LCD TV as a monito or to watch movies on. CAT 5 only has 8 conductors and HDMI has 19.
