AF24 POE adapter 50V @ 1.2A = 60W
(1) Switch 6W MAX (peak)
(2) airMAX M Radios on ports 3-5 12W MAX (peaks) each so say 36W (peak)
(1) airMAX AC 12W MAX (peaks)
6+36+12=54W MAX (peak)
You have to count the possible peaks because they can happen at the same time.
Are you powering the MT router from the switch, if so then you "may" be having a power dip that causes the radio to reboot?
How many watts is the router using?
UBNT has a larger 54V 80W POE adapter you may wish to try?

If you power the one radio with a POE adapter and all is fine I would guess your looking at a power issue?
Did not really look at your config too close yet but I do not think that is your issue.

Post up your Status and Device/Status Tabs
Also watch your voltage and watts readings for awhile during peaks.

Mikrotik is NOT being powered by the switch. Currently there are no customers on the tower so power usage stays fairly low.
Here is my Status Tab.
I do not have the AC-400 (port 6) being powered or even run through the Netonix switch at this time so take its power draw into account.
What I have not tried is powering the AC-400 with the passive UBNT power supply, but still having the AC-400 run through the switch. Would eliminate power problems from being the issue?

Also to be clear the switch is what is rebooting not just the radio. The switch will run fine powering the AC-400 as long as port 1 is not connected to the WAN port of the MT router. As soon as port 1 is connected to the WAN port the switch will reboot, sometimes within 30 seconds. Also the switch when it reboots will get stuck in a reboot cycle where it will reboot constantly. The longest of which was around 1.5 hours.

A power dip or shortage can cause the switch to reboot same as a radio.
It could be a power issue or also a bad switch, swapping out the switch eliminates that possibility.
As I said I have not had time to look at your config, could be your config?
The fact that when you plug in the one cable it reboots in 30 seconds is interesting, and using a POE brick and running through the switch also eliminates a power issue.
DO you have RSTP and or Loop Protection enabled? You may be creating a loop somehow (remember did not look at your config to close yet)

Now to make things worse the switch has been up and stable since 5pm yesterday, but within the last hour the switch has rebooted itself 3 times. No errors given prior to reboot. The switch is plugged into the same UPS as the MT router and the UBNT power supply (powering the AC-400).
I will try replacing the power supply and if it continues I will replace the switch. Could the constant reboot cycles (it was doing it for over 1 hour yesterday) have damaged the switch?
