I have successfully used 75 ohm coax (cable TV wire) to transmit S/PDIF

However, any wire you use (coax or Cat5) cannot be carrying any other
signal at the time. And if you are using Cat5, it cannot be connected
to any active networking devices (no routers, hubs, etc.). None of
those devices would know what to do with S/PDIF.
If you follow the link GoCubs provided you'll see the device claims to
need only one pair of CAT5 wires. So apparently you could run many over
one cat5 cable and - with a proper splitter, you should even be able to
run a 100 Mbit ethernet connection on the same line, since they use only
4 wires IIRC.
