What is the maximum wire speed of a single port to transfer a file from a server on a 48-port Gigabit Ethernet switch?

A. 1,000 Mb/s
B. 2 Gb/s
C. 48 Gb/s
D. 96 Gb/s

A. Wire speed of a single port on a 48-port gigabit switch would be 1 Gb/s, or 1,000 Mb/s. While the switch is able to transfer at 2Gb/s (1Gb/s in and 1Gb/s out), the question is for a file transfer which would be in one direction.
