Starting from some distance from ME Controller, cables do not transfer channels to devices. As you can see on following screenshot one of ME Storage Terminals work fine while another don't. All three are connected simultaneously yet Smart Cable shows only one channel. Pink Dense Cable's length is about 50 blocks.

If it's supposed to work this way, what should i do to increase max distance?

Almost forgot. Minecraft 1.16.3 with Forge 34.1.42
AE2 v8.1.0 Release
mod_list.txt

And minimal save for this bug. As i couldn't repeat it in creative.

OK, i got it. Awkward.

I don't like the situation. Mostly because i have no tool to know total channels count at the point. Also because Power Cell block ruins 2 Dense Cables somehow. If you think it's fine, you can close the issue.
