New centroid servo cable question

My new servo cables showed up from Centroid, they have 3 wires and what I’m replacing has 5, I show 4 in the picture, what’s not seen is the ground wire.
How does this work?

Centroid does not use the tachometer, so you can ignore the thin white and black wires.

Excellent thank you!
I suppose Centroid sells the male version of the female end they sold me

That connector mates with Centroid Servos.
You can cut it off and use insulated spade connectors on the -/+ wires and use a ring terminal on the ground wire.

You can also get the mating housing and contacts from Digikey.
