This mod adds only one block, an "ME Capability Adapter", it basically allows Applied Energistics connections over things that proxies capabilities, such as Compact Machines 3 Tunnels.
Requires Applied Energistics 2, obviously. Not tested with Applied Energistics 2 forks (such as Applied Llamagistics), may or may not work.
Note: Requires one at both ends, also can only carry 8 channels. This is also something I made for my own use and thought that others may find it useful.

This is a very handy mod! Although, I would love to see a slim version of this block, as many of the AE2 blocks do (P2P, Storage bus, etc.)
The issue I'm having is that you cannot have two of these next to each other without them connecting. A slim version would allow the isolation of networks using cable anchors, saving on space. Not a huge deal, but in my setup, it would be extremely useful.

I would love a multipart version of the block as well! That would be super nifty!
Maybe a dense version for 32 channels?

P2P tunnels doen't seem to work for me. Also I'm only getting 8 channels in total, no matter if I hook up different sides.
One room has coming in 8 Channels from 5 sides (1 side reserved for the tunnel itself).
The other room has 2 dense cables connected to different sides not connected to eachother. Both cables seem to share the 8 channels, I can't get more than that. Not even with P2P tunnels.
Mind explaining how you are getting more channels through?
In reply to recon_:
The way I have it, I have the tunnel cables on a separate "subnetwork" from the main network, and I pass the channels thru the walls with the P2P network. So each tunnel will only take 2 channels to transfer 32. Using this, you can get up to 4 separate tunnels per side, with 32 channels each. I'm sure you can do some fancy subnetting with additional controllers on either the inside or the outside to get even more channels, but there's only so much you can put into a single 13x13x13 :P
Note that you can also transfer RF, EU, Light, etc with P2P tunnels, so you can also bring power into the machine using only AE2, if you really need to.
Here is a very quick 96 channel setup using one side.

So far I understand how you got it working.
Ran into another issue. I need at least 32 channels available in every compact room.
How would I do that with my current setup? Channels need to be relayed through the hub.
How 'bout a Refined Storage version?

Love your mod. If I may ask, is there a way to disable the power drain coming from the Adapter perhaps?
"Energistics connections over things that proxies capabilities" are there other mods this could be useful for making connections from AE to them~?
