Live feed from HMC150 to projector

I have been asked to submit a proposal for providing live video coverage of an upcoming event. My thoughts are to run HDMI over CAT5 from the HMC150 to the projector. I have researched that and feel pretty confident that will work for a run up to 100 ft, but I would like to hear if you see any issues with this appoach. I will definitely be testing this before the event just to be sure.

I've never done live feeds before and am wondering how to handle the situation where I need to reposition the camera. The best way I can think of is use my Manfrotto Iris controller to close down the Iris before a move. I assume the camera would still be sending a signal out the HDMI which would keep the projector from going into standby. Any flaws with this thinking?
 
I've run VGA over CAT5. It works well.

In a live event, my position is that the cameras just don't move. Ever. If the client absolutely must have more than one location covered, they need to pay for an addition camera.
