The Quantum Entangloporter from Mekanism is a machine that allows liquids/items/energy/gas to be sent from one Quantum Entangloporter to another through a channel. The Quantum Entangloporter is similar to the Tesseract from Thermal Expansion, but the Quantum Entangloporter can send and receive gasses while the Tesseract cannot.
Contents
Capacity
Energy: 102.4 MFE
Liquid: 256000 mB
Gas: 8192000 mB
Heat: Infinite
Item: Items are transfered only when there are connected paths for them to go. The maximum transfer rate is 128 items per second, but idle entangloporters may take a bit to reach this maximum speed.
Throughput
Quantum Entangloporters do not directly transfer matter (besides items), as the tooltip suggests. Instead, each channel is a storage of energy, gas, liquids and so on that all connected entangloporters access. This has important bearing on its throughput: any channel can not transfer more than its maximum capacity per tick. Therefore, for large-scale applications (such as a sodium-cooled Fission Reactor), it is still best to use the port-to-port connection method.

Usage
To use a quantum entangloporter, set it to access a pre-existing frequency, or set a new frequency by entering it into the textbox. Once connected, it allows you to access all matter (item, energy, liquid, gas, heat) stored in that frequency.
As all machines in Mekanism, entangloporters can have their sides configured to exclusively input, output, or do nothing. Of note is that since the quantum entangloporter has no discernable front, the Configurator is especially helpful in setting up sides.
The main use of them is to transfer matter wirelessly over infinite distances. An entangloporter can modify the contents of its frequency as long as it is chunkloaded, even while the player is far away (by installing the Anchor Upgrade).
Another use of them is to simplify logistical tasks, such as setting up the Pressurized Reaction Chamber. As an entangloporter can simutaneously supply items, energy, gas and liquid, only two is needed for a reaction chamber (different fluids do not mix, so there need to be two different networks), as opposed to the usual 6 cables.
