The Aurora Jazz provides comprehensive test capabilities for the installation, operation and maintenance of ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) networks.
ATM allows the co-existence of multiple data types on a single network, using any type of physical interface.
Whether the test requirement is for commissioning, maintaining or troubleshooting, the user of Aurora Jazz will be impressed with its ability to quickly and efficiently prove the correct operation of ATM circuits.
Networks can be tested by emulating the connection to the network or the customer, or by monitoring a circuit in-line or passively in single or bi-directional modes.
For the selected cellstream OAM analysis can be used to test the ATM layer alarms, plus the operation of Continuity Check and Loopback cell types.

7. GALLIER HALL 545 St. Charles St. Originally the headquarters for the 2nd Municipality, this hall was constructed in 1845 and designed by James Gallier (Sr.), renowned New Orleans architect.

This was Werlein's first long-term location after the civil war (1867-1877) and closely adjacent to their later Werlein Hall (1881-87) on the site of the current Le Pavillion Hotel.
Cornetist/bandleader Johnny Dedroit led his band here (1920's), the Kirst Brothers played dinner music, German Bands celebrated Oktoberfest, and others played for dances and parties.

Rogers locates the 'primal' origins of jazz ---"nobody's child of the levee and the city slum" --- in the "joyous revolt" of African America against "sordidness and sorrow" (Rogers 216, 217).
And it is precisely by virtue of this spirit, he continues, that jazz has become a globalized balm for the suffering and ennui of "modern machine-ridden and convention bound society" the world over (Rogers 217).
Black musicians in Shanghai, while sometimes subject to sporadic racial harassment at the hands of their Euro-American compatriots, were also beneficiaries of the city's colonial hierarchy.5 Their remuneration far exceeded that of the "Filipino bands, Russian bands, East Indian bands, and of course the oriental bands" who played jazz and other hybrid musics in lesser venues.
