Can someone suggest how can I look up this part?
The LED current and Voltage requirements are very low, so what I did I used a single pair from CAT6 network cable (regular phone cable will work as well, there is no high frequency interfence relevant to this projet) and soldered wires directly to the plug. Cetainly not the most graceful solution but one that works and simple. Than I ran wires thru existing hose to the roof/lamp area -- it has plenty of available space.
