2 Cat6 drops to each bedroom and common areas where you expect to have TVs....route all to common closet/space for all IT equipment to be stored...use patch panel if you want it nice and pretty...

With cat being so cheap I would do 3 to each tv. That way 2 can be used with HDMI converters and then one hard wire.

Can someone explain to me why someone would need 2-3 Cat connections per TV and all throughout the house? What are they used for? Yes, I'm being serious. Haha. In my 35 years I've never needed a Cat 5/6 connection.
