About the Startup Describe your product in 3 words.Liberate Your BluetoothHow did you come up with the idea for this product?As a former Cisco engineer, Aruba executive, and founder of his own WiFi mesh networking company, Felix Zhao has been on the search for a universal wireless protocol for nearly two decades. Unhappy with WiFi’s effect on battery life and ZigBee and Z-wave’s lack of integration with smartphones, Felix finally settled on Bluetooth for its open standard and universal reach and compatibility. Bluetooth was a natural choice because not only is every smartphone Bluetooth enabled, but an estimated 4 billion Bluetooth enabled devices are expected to ship worldwide in 2016 according to Bluetooth SIG’s annual report.What makes your product special?The Cassia Hub is truly unique and innovative. It’s the world’s first Bluetooth Router, and the only product to connect up to 3 Bluetooth Classic devices and up to 22 Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) devices at the same time and extend their range over 1,000 feet.What has been the best part of your startup experience?The challenge for Cassia Networks at first was figuring out how to solve the problems associated with Bluetooth without requiring any changes on the end devices. The best part of the startup experience has been knowing that the improvements we are bringing to Bluetooth are going to ultimately foster a whole new class of affordable Bluetooth IoT and connected home devices online in a way that was previously not possible. With the Cassia Hub, the future of seamless Bluetooth connectivity is now here.

So fun having more then 1 speaker going
I got the Hub Kit, a plug and 2 lights, Came just in time for a party we were having. So fun having more then 1 speaker going, it was great. We left for vacation the next week and were able to turn on and off multiple lights anytime. I had the sound system and fan hooked up to the plug. I was able to turn all of it on and off from the other side of the country. After familiarizing myself with the software I had the whole set up going on and off on a timer. There seemed to be a few glitches in the software, however their customer service team was all over it. Great!

I bought the Cassia Hub Connected Home Kit and are loving it so far. The bulb we use as a night light in the kids room and we can change the color to any color our kids like for the night which gets them excited about going to bed on time. The plug we have a lamp connected to in near a window in the front of our house. Its very useful for when we come home late we can turn on the light remotely before we get home. The speakers were a big hit when we have dinner parties at our house. We use it to stream music. The new software update makes it extremely easy to use with any app because it allows you to connect the speaker to your phone as a Bluetooth speaker. Everything is super easy to control using the app on my iPhone. I will be purchasing additional light bulbs to use in the dining and living rooms.
