Your question must be separated into Basic and Primary rate. For Primary Rate the answer is no (see below) For Basic Rate, the Euro-ISDN units would have S reference point interfaces that would need an NT1 to attach. This is not unusual. The layer 2/3 protocol is similar but different in the treatment of SPIDs (Euro-ISDN doesn't do this at all) and when TEIs are removed. Therefore, proper software would be needed. P.S. There are cases, however, where it would work although not officialy.
