Quizplus · Accepted Answer

IEEE 802.11ac is a wireless LAN protocol that allows speeds of up to 1.3 Gbps, making it faster than its predecessor, IEEE 802.11n. Ethernet is a wired LAN protocol, and IEEE 802.11ac is not the same as Ethernet. Access points are able to process IEEE 802.11ac signals, and high-speed infrared connections are defined by a different protocol (IrDA).
