Most 50AMP SHore Power cable use this method where the cable disconnects from the trailer end...
Alot of 30AMP Shore Power Cables use this method that get pushed back into the trailer end but can also be like the above photo and be disconnected. My 30AMP trailer uses the push-in-the-hole method
You may have to install a square hatch door like this to push your large 50AMP shore power cable connector through the door.
I too am wondering why your 50AMP cable is the push-in-the-hole type. Have you done some changes and installed a 50A connector on end of your 30AMP Shore Power Cable.
We have been to several camp sites that only have the 30AMP Pedestal Service available. Only a few where we always go seem to have both 30A and 50A Service on the pedestals.
