That could be caused by a bunch of things. Two seem likely enough to be worth investigating. Maybe your battery was essentially dead and couldn't provide enough current to run your drive motors. Maybe you have a couple of frame shorts that bring the cRIO power return to a high enough voltage that 24v on the power supply isn't sufficient to keep it running.

A bad Ethernet cable won't cause a cRIO reboot.
