Please post the photo of your cable (with connectors visible).

My best guess is it is to a Camcorder, or Camera with video. 

The Mono 2.5  likely connects to the Yellow RCA  for the video.   The Din connector is the device's multi port , ans in this case is out-puting audio to the white RCS jack and is receiving power from the DC powerjack.  Mono 2.5 <->   Yellow RCA  for the video    was not too uncommon in the 90's - early 2000's
