Final answer:
The incorrect statement about the 802.11ac standard is that it is the latest standard. The latest standard as of 2023 is 802.11ax or Wi-Fi 6, not 802.11ac, which is known as Wi-Fi 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer is option "It is the latest standard." The 802.11ac standard is indeed known as Wi-Fi 5 and it is the fifth generation of Wi-Fi.
However, 802.11ac is not the latest standard as of my knowledge cutoff in 2023. The latest standard is 802.11ax, also known as Wi-Fi 6.
Moreover, while the 802.11ac standard has a maximum data rate of 1.3 Gbps under certain conditions, that is not the focus of the question's incorrect statement.
The discrepancy lies in the claim that 802.11ac is the latest standard, which is false. It is important for students to stay updated with the technological standards as they continue to evolve.
The correct answer is option 3. The statement 'It is the latest standard' is not true about the 802.11ac standard. While it is a high-speed Wi-Fi standard, it has been superseded by newer standards such as 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) and 802.11ay. These newer standards offer even higher data rates and improved performance.
