Russian term or phrase: обратная связь (в этом контексте)
У нас есть опытная команда, состоящая из профессионалов в каждой из областей. Специалисты технической службы отеля обеспечат видеоконференцию с **обратной связью**, выделенную линию высокоскоростную интернета, видеотрансляции, полное обеспечение офисной техникой (копировальная техника, компьютеры).

I think "feedback," as I would understand the word in this context (irritating background noise, whistles), would not be a service the hotel would be advertising! So what is this обратная связь?

Explanation:
I think this is what is meant, so you'll have to qualify the expression since, as you point out, it has a different, technical meaning

agree  rns: "two-way" conferencing means "established by and between two parties" as, e.g., http://www.boostcam.com/ that may or may not be the case in the context.

Explanation:
I suspect the phrase "с обратной связью" is redundant. I only found 4 instances of its use in a Google search. "Teleconferencing" or "video conferencing" involves two-way comms.

Example sentence(s):
  • Московский офис ВБ может подключать участников семинаров как в режиме «вэб-каст» (онлайновое одностороннее слежение), так и в режиме виде�

Bi-directional Video Conferencing


Explanation:
This is opposed to asymmetric configurations where someone in the field can log onto the centrally-run conferences but in a limited way only, e.g. lower speed in one direction (typically upload speed - from them), lower access rights.

This one allows full-scale participation or initiation of video conferencing which is of course more "prestigious" and thus worth promoting for the hotel.
