Explanation

Important note before the explanation: Based on standard Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) specifications, the stated correct answer of D appears to conflict with the question's parameters. A 2x2 MIMO terminal at 160MHz yields a maximum theoretical rate of 2.4 Gbps (answer A), not 9.6 Gbps. The values map as follows:

9.6 Gbps (D) is the Wi-Fi 6 absolute maximum - but it requires 8x8 MIMO, which is the AP's capability here, not the terminal's. The terminal is limited to 2x2, capping it at 2.4 Gbps.

If the question intends to ask about the AP's 5G radio maximum theoretical rate (ignoring the terminal's 2x2 constraint), then D is correct because 8 streams × 160MHz bandwidth = 9.6 Gbps under Wi-Fi 6 MCS11/1024-QAM.

Why the distractors fail under that interpretation: B (1.2 Gbps) = 1x1 at 160MHz; A (2.4 Gbps) = 2x2 at 160MHz (the terminal's actual limit, not the AP's max); C (4.8 Gbps) = 4x4 at 160MHz.

Memory tip: Wi-Fi 6's headline number is 9.6 Gbps - anchor it to "8×8 + 160MHz." When bandwidth doubles or streams double, the rate doubles proportionally. The 9.6 Gbps figure appears in Huawei certification materials as the Wi-Fi 6 peak, so watch for questions that test this number against the AP's radio configuration specifically.
