Which of the following characteristics allows an 802.11g WAP to have transfer speeds up to 108Mbps?

The correct answer is B. Channel bonding. Standard 802.11g has a maximum throughput of 54 Mbps. Some vendors implemented a proprietary enhancement called channel bonding (also known as Super G or 125 High Speed Mode), which combines two adjacent 20 MHz channels into a single 40 MHz channel, effectively doubling the…

Explanation

Standard 802.11g has a maximum throughput of 54 Mbps. Some vendors implemented a proprietary enhancement called channel bonding (also known as Super G or 125 High Speed Mode), which combines two adjacent 20 MHz channels into a single 40 MHz channel, effectively doubling the throughput to 108 Mbps. MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) is a technology associated with 802.11n and later standards, not 802.11g. Encryption type and frequency do not determine the raw throughput ceiling of the protocol.
