Why each option

One of the standard transmission speeds for IEEE 1394, commonly known as FireWire, is 400 Mbps.

A100Mbps

While 100 Mbps is a standard IEEE 1394 speed, the question asks for 'a standard' speed, and 400 Mbps is also a correct and commonly cited standard speed.

B400MbpsCorrect

IEEE 1394, in its initial specification (FireWire 400), offered standard data transfer rates of 100 Mbps, 200 Mbps, and 400 Mbps. The 400 Mbps speed was widely adopted and is a common characteristic of FireWire 400 devices.

C480Mbps

480 Mbps is a standard transmission speed for USB 2.0 (High-Speed USB), not IEEE 1394.

D1000Mbps

1000 Mbps (1 Gigabit per second) is typically associated with Gigabit Ethernet or later USB specifications, not the primary IEEE 1394 standards (though FireWire 800 reached 800 Mbps).
