Lee, The second connector is a CHAdeMO connector which is essentially a controlled connection directly to the battery. The charger is actually off board.
The ones I have used have typically been 50kW. There was one in the 40kW range I used that actually displayed voltage and current. For my Kia Soul EV+ it was putting out just under 400VDC at 100A for the majority of the charging. Naturally the voltage started out lower and increased throughout the charging cycle.
