Default Garmin 4208 Output for GPS Speedometer?

Is the Garmin 4208 capable of providing a signal to the GPS speedometer head on the dash, so I can only have one antenna for the chartplotter?

You have a NMEA 0183 output. So, you should be able to connect the speedo. You might have to buy some type of harness.
