Can you provide a manufacturer and part number so we can look for the data sheet? Generally the data sheet will tell you which pins are what.

In my experience, LEDs need to connect either to something like a spike relay (if you want to be able to turn it on or off) or directly to power (possibly via a custom circuit if there is some kind of driver needed to get the correct voltages and current levels for your LED device), but a picture of the cable doesn't tell me enough.
