Per Chapter 5 page 129 of the Exam Prep Switching book:
"...This change is due to te collision-detection scheme used by both
technologies, which requires a station to know within the first 64 bytes of
transmission that a collision has taken place with another station. Because
the actual medium is not changed, a station transmitting 10 times faster
must have a max. distance 10 times less.
Hope this helps...

Subject: EASY ?? FOR MOST OF YOU
The network span of a 100Base-T Network (205) meters is approx. 10 times
smaller than the network span of a 10Base-T network (2500) meters Because
....
A) , Higher speed data signals attenuate more quickly and so cannot be
transmitted that far
B) . Both Networks have minimum frame sizes of 64 bytes and the network
spans must be tied directly to the minimum frame transmission time to avoid
collisions.
