HV cable, the highest tier, can only handle up to 2048 EU packet passing through. That's enough to barely handle an animal going 20 meters away (animals cost 100 x distance; 100 x 20 = 2000 EU). If this page is correct in saying all distances below 20 meters are treated as 20 energy-wise, then the cable will overload trying to teleport a player. Even if that isn't true, you could only go 2 meters (players cost 1000 x distance; 1000 x 2 = 2000 EU). It's best if you just place the teleporter directly next to the storage unit.
