What standard is IEEE 1394a commonly referred to?

  1. USB

  2. Ethernet

  3. Firewire

  4. Wi-Fi

The correct answer is: Firewire

IEEE 1394a is commonly referred to as Firewire due to its speed and ability to transfer large amounts of data. This is used primarily for audio and video equipment, making it an ideal choice for professionals in the media industry. It is not referred to as USB, Ethernet, or Wi-Fi as these are different standards with different purposes. USB is commonly used for connecting devices like keyboards and mice, while Ethernet is used for networking and internet connections. Wi-Fi is used for wireless internet access. However, none of these options are specifically designed for the transfer of large media files like Firewire. Therefore, these options are not correct.
