Which wireless standard works at a MAXIMUM data rate of up to 54Mbps?
The correct answer is B. 802.11g. IEEE 802.11g operates in the 2.4 GHz band with a maximum data rate of 54 Mbps, the same as 802.11a but with broader range. 802.11b operates at a maximum of 11 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band. 802.11n can reach up to 600 Mbps using MIMO and operates in both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. 802.1q is…

Explanation
IEEE 802.11g operates in the 2.4 GHz band with a maximum data rate of 54 Mbps, the same as 802.11a but with broader range. 802.11b operates at a maximum of 11 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band. 802.11n can reach up to 600 Mbps using MIMO and operates in both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. 802.1q is not a wireless standard - it is the IEEE standard for VLAN tagging. 802.11g's 54 Mbps ceiling is a key benchmark for certification exams.
