It's really hard to secure an IP network once someone puts a hostile
server on the network. If you run ethernet to the rooms someone is going
to unplug the phone, plug in their laptop, and see what havoc they can
wreak. Ping flooding, DHCP servers, network/port scans, arp poisoning,
spoofing calls, are just a few things I could think of off the top of my
head. Many of those are going to be really hard to prevent.

I think you're going to be much better off putting analog phones in the
rooms and just using the cat5 as transport.
