The cables look reasonably thin because they are water-cooled. That means that the power loss in the cables is so great that without active cooling the fiber would just melt. Take a look at this page https://www.photontec-berlin.com/power_delivery_fiber_cable.... which contains actual specs of the cables, for instance https://www.photontec-berlin.com/pdf/ld80.pdf or https://www.photontec-berlin.com/pdf/ld80-water.pdf
