What is the speed of NFC?

  1. 160 Mbps

  2. 75W

  3. up to 424 Kbps

  4. 2.5 Gbps

The correct answer is: up to 424 Kbps

NFC stands for Near Field Communication, which is a type of technology used for short-range wireless communication between devices. It is commonly used for contactless payments, file sharing, and data exchange. NFC operates at a frequency of 13.56 MHz and has a maximum data transfer speed of 424 Kbps. This speed may vary depending on the devices and their capabilities, but it is generally much slower than other wireless communication technologies such as WiFi and Bluetooth. Option A and D are incorrect because they represent much higher data transfer speeds, which are not possible for NFC. Option B is incorrect because it represents power output, not data transfer speed.
