Any clue what connector this is?

Go to solution Solved by Razor Blade,

It is a PS/2 plug the plastic tab is broken.

Just moved into a new house and found this cable running across the wall, and figured it was somehow connected to the CCTV camera stuck outside as there's no other sign of cables for the camera, but I can't figure out what connector this is.

 

It looks a lot like a PS/2, but the central plastic piece is too long and would block it from fitting in a PS/2 port; I checked the length of the cable and can't find a marking or any writing to suggest what it is either.

 

Any help is appreciated, thanks :P
