I have a Matrix AIS+ (GX2150).  On page 17 of the GX2150 manual, it says
AIS data is transmitted at 38400 baud via the brown wire.  If a
chartplotter/GPS supports high speed (38400 baud) on two ports, then you
can send DSC and AIS data via the gray wire only if the chartplotter/GPS
input port is set to high speed.

I have two GPS units so mine is wired a bit differently.  The 38400 baud
stream is connected only to my Standard Horizon CP190i at the helm.  I have
an old Garmin GPS at the navstation.  For short sails, I often sail without
dragging out and hooking up the CP190i.  The 4800 baud data from the two
GPS units go to a switch from which I select which GPS "runs the boat".  By
selecting the Garmin, I still have GPS data for the autosteerer, DSC on the
Matrix, sailing instruments, etc.

For longer sails, I hook up the CP190i which shows the AIS targets but I
still can choose which GPS "runs the boat".
