Thanx in advance.

Edit: may I answer my question myself :-) I´ve found the manual of the case http://www.antec.com/pdf/manuals/Fus..._EN_manual.pdf
But personal experiences are still wellcome though.

As I understand there are 2 USB cables in the package: one for an external USB port and one for an USB header on the motherboard (Intel pin layout). You have to use one of them. Through this cable the Display and the IR receiver is controlled but not power supplied. You still have to plug one power cable of the integrated power supply unit into the display. The poswer supply does not go through USB-Port. And install the driver (one or two? for display and for IR?) Correct?
The power supply for display and Ir comes directly from the 430W PS. there is a seperate cable for, all provided.
Then there is a USB connection for Display and Ir, it comes with a driver CD when you buy a Antec case, but you can also download it from the Antec website.
Antec.com

Then there are 2 usb connectors for the 2 front USB ports of the case.
I do not use the Ir reciever (yet), since I have a bluethooth keyboard.
I only use the display to show some information about system.
