It appears Nate was right, the Tycon POE does not seem to have damaged the 
radio.

I think maybe Cambium ePMP and 450b (but not 450) are polarity agnostic?  Maybe 
also Ubiquiti airFiber?

If it's a current limiting supply like any of the modern POE Injectors, then I 
don't think there's usually a problem, if it's a direct connection like a 
battery, then yes, it releases the magic smoke.  But the Cambium radios would 
do that too if you reverse the polarity with a battery pack, years ago we had 
an installer who never paid attention to the polarity, he fried several FSK 
Radios.
