A small business has recently moved into an office space with multiple wireless networks. The IT consultant is asked to establish a wireless network that minimizes interference from other networks and provides faster data throughput for the office's video conferencing needs. Which wireless standard would be MOST appropriate for the consultant to use in this scenario?
802.11ac, also known as WiFi 5, operates on the 5GHz band which is less congested than the 2.4GHz band, providing better performance in a crowded environment. Additionally, 802.11ac offers higher data throughput rates, making it suitable for applications like video conferencing that require more bandwidth.
