One way, though not real cheap is to use MIDI Solutions Products
http://www.midisolutions.com/products.htm
Their Footswitch controller along with their MIDI merger would do that, but that's $200 plus you need a pedal.
I have one of these:

It's a kit that would do what you're asking, cost $70 after shipping, but you need a bit of electronics background and to make it in a case. You also need an ac adapter for it - I found one that worked. The Doepfer card is good because it allows you to add 4 controllers and a switch like a sustain pedal.
An alternative would be another keyboard that has a MIDI in and through and use the pedal attached to that but have it merged with your first keyboard.

Best Advice Ever: RTFM
Not sure what you are asking. A sustain pedal is just a switch which tells the controller that it is either on or off and it is almost always just a 1/4" TS plug. Just about every controller has a footswitch input
