From memory, when I installed my rear view camera, that connector is for the central locking. Some versions of the hatchbacks in some countries have a key operated lock in the hatch. This connector then signals the doors to unlock or lock when the hatch key lock is operated.

I wasn't able to find any wiring in the hatch for a rear view camera, and ended up running a video cable all the way back to the radio. I tapped 12 volts from a reversing light to power the camera and provide a switching signal to the radio.
