We connected this old PBX successfully to Asterisk using a quad bri module from Alcatel and 4xHFC based Billion BiPAC cards in NT mode (ptp).
There was a problem with dialing out (Alcatel could send only 5digits in block mode so we have to upgrade it to newest firrmware - 4.2.5 i think),
but there are two ways to overcome this problem.
In fact, everything was nice, if there was exact dialout patterns (like XXXXXX) but we could not use 00.

1) look for and alcatel guru (if you are not one :-) and ask him to reconfigure the digit-timeout after upgrade
2) set the misdn driver to always immediate, and give a dialtone with dtmf detect

i did the following until our guru configured the alcatel box:
exten => s,1,Answer
exten => s,2,DISA(no-password|from-internal)
exten => s,3,Hangup

worked nice on both ways. Keep in mind, if you wanna use isdn (block) dial, use always-immediate=no in misdn, and set yes,
if you want dtmf dial.
