Hotwire Communications debuts EchoCast at HITEC in New Orleans

New Orleans, HITEC Hospitality Show, June 20, 2016 - Hotwire Communication’s Fision® Stay division is excited to debut their newest product – EchoCast – at HITEC, the world’s largest hospitality technology show, on June 20 in at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. Attendees of HITEC can participate in live demonstrations of EchoCast in New Orleans June 20-23.

EchoCast is a new feature to the Echo platform offered to Hotwire’s hotel customers. It allows hotel guests to cast their favorite content from apps like Netflix®, Hulu, sports apps, plus TV Everywhere channels, directly to the hotel TV with no additional app or without the need for any 3rd party applications required, and it’s available immediately to all hotels eligible for Fision Echo. With thousands of supported apps available, there is endless entertainment for everyone. Guests can cast their favorite TV shows, movies, music, live sports, and play games.

“The release of EchoCast is an exciting next step for our hospitality division. Over the last few years, guests have been driving the BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) trend in hotels but have not had a way to seamlessly watch their own content on the TV. This product enables a seamless experience and gives the guest complete control over their entire viewing experience,” explains Alexandria Richards, Vice President of Sales at Hotwire Communications for the Fision® Stay.

Fision Stay was created to offer hoteliers a full service communications and entertainment experience. Hotwire’s hospitality customers are connected by GPON technology to deliver the customized solution created to meet your hotel’s needs. We offer IPTV HD television, High Speed Internet Access (HSIA), WiFi, PBX, interactive solutions, casting capabilities, and more!
