Correct answer: A, D

Explanation

Option A is correct because IEEE 802.11ax supports high data rates, specifically up to 4.8Gbps. Option D is also correct as the standard operates in both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, enhancing flexibility. Options B, C, and E are incorrect; B incorrectly describes the standard's purpose, C limits its operation to 5GHz, and E falsely states that it does not use electromagnetic signals.
