I believe Dennis is correct. I also have an SH GX2150, installed at the helm 
and paired with a Garmin 541 mounted on the pedestal. The input from the 
GPS/plotter is NMEA183 (at 4800 baud I believe) and the AIS output is on a 
38400 baud data wire. The Garmin plotter has (2) NMEA183 connections, and one 
of them is switchable to a 38400 baud connection for input from an AIS receiver.

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".

Hi Fred, 

According to Standard Horizon Website it works with both:

There's also a possibility of a 'Backdoor' way to get 38,400 bauds:  Connect 
the ActiSense converter on the NMEA2000 side  / convert it back to NMEA0183.  
You'd have to check with Actisense to make sure it supports the AIS in the 
needed direction.

Jean-Francois — AIS data will ONLY work at 38400 baud; there’s just too much 
possible data to fit on a 4800 baud stream.

Hi David, 

Come to think of it you might be able to connect your AIS after-all.. I just 
checked and your standard Radio Horizon unit can work with either 4,800 bauds 
or 38,400/  You should be Dandy @ 4,800 bauds.
