Explanation
The output shows Interface G1/0/1 has "Admin State off" and "Oper State off", meaning PoE is administratively disabled on that port. Since available power exists (472W total, 456.6W remaining) and no overutilization is occurring, the issue is that the switch is not configured to provide PoE on G1/0/1. Enabling PoE on that port would resolve the problem.
