What would be the rarity of this magic item(s)?
$begingroup$
What would the rarity for a set of bags of holding and similar items like portable hole, that share the same extra dimensional space? It would be similar to how ender chests work in Minecraft, or piggy banks in terraria.
The source item (Bag of Holding/Portable Hole) would work exactly like they normally do, but each source item would have access to the same interior space and work at any range, including across planes.

For clarity, are you asking about multiple items that share the same space, where a character in one location could deposit an item, and a character in a second location could retrieve it?

This question might be answerable under the principles of Good Subjective, but you need to provide a lot more information about the parameters of this item. What's its carrying capacity? Does it have a maximum range, or inability to function across planes? Is its weight independent of the weight of the objects it contains? Does it have restrictions on how quickly items may be retrieved from it? Providing these details will make this question a lot better.

Exactly, there would be ‘multiple’ of the items that one person could place an item in, then another could take it out. In the case of a set of bags of holding, it would be the inner space, with multiple openings to the various bags.

In particular, a good idea might be to edit in a semi-official statblock into the question describing the features and limitations of this item. That would be a very good step towards getting good answers to this question.

It acts exactly like the normal items, but you can access it from multiple places, it can work across planes, and at any range

This is basically a portable and resourceless sending/teleport/plane shift/gate pair of items. The utility of this is massive both in terms of movement and communication.
$endgroup$
$begingroup$
If it was small enough that only, say, a few coins or a piece of paper could pass through, and it only worked on one plane, then I would downgrade the rarity to Very Rare. But this is absolutely game-changing as written -- pay a hireling to monitor the other end, and dump an entire treasure horde into it. Get the party's gnome to jump in and get pulled out from the other bag. Plus, once you get into magic that goes across planes, you're in a whole other world. Other caveats that can bring down the rarity would be charges and size limits.
