Do I need a special cable for a Raspberry Pi 5 ? Does the power for the display come from the Pi or do I need to connect an extra power cable ?

You will need a separate power cable to supply power to the display. The Raspberry Pi 5 cannot supply enough power via its USB or HDMI ports to fully power the display. Therefore, the display should be supplied with power via its own USB-C port or another suitable power supply cable.
You will need an HDMI cable to connect the Raspberry Pi 5 to the display, as the display has an HDMI port.
