Coax Direct TV Signal Converted to Cat5e and Run Through House to 5 HDTV's

Hi,

 

I would like to convert my Direct TV signal from Coax to Cat5e at the point in the garage where it come into the house and run the Direct TV signal via Cat5e to 5 rooms within the house. My question is what equipment do I need to do this successfully?

 

Thanks!

If you install a Directv Whole Home DVR system, the coax installed by Directv will carry both TV and Internet signals to all of the HD devices via a single coax to each device.
