... it should be possible.
You don't say what sort of application, or even OS (VMS, Unix, etc)
you have on the Alpha.
Basically if the Alpha is generating some sort of routeable data,
such as DECnet or IP, then the CISCO will route it from the Ethernet
to another datalink - which would be the ISDN port. I assume that
there is something similar at the other end of the ISDN connection.
As for Ethernet cables, I don't know what connection types these
particular CISCOs have, but I can't see it being a problem. If all
else fails, there's no shortage of adapter types.
