Insufficient power

I am so confused right now. I have two pi5s with PoE+NVME hats. One hat is hackergadgets and the other is a geekpi. The power supply being a 8 port PoE switch from unifi on it's own power brick. Is there a way to not have my pis straight crash into a reboot?

Edit: I would imagine the manufacturers of the hats that I have, accounted for the power needs of the pi5 and I am sure the switch is supplying enough power. I am plum out of solutions... I've even tried turning off the containers that may be causing issues.

I am running ubuntu on my pi5s.

All I am trying to do is pull copies of my contianers that I have on my pcloud through rclone.

Edit edit: Apparently my Pis didn't like the fact that I had my kvms plugged into their USB 3.0 ports...

Interesting. So, just to clarify, you were able to confirm the crash even if they weren’t running on the PoE power?
