iTerm2 keyboard shortcut - split pane navigation

Question

I have been a long time user of the standard Mac Terminal  Decided to experiment with iTerm2 after hearing good things about it from my colleagues   One of the more useful features I am seeing on iTerm2 is its split panes  much like vim split buffers    In vim  I can move between split buffers using Ctrl W arrowkeys  Is there a keyboard shortcut for iTerm2 to move between panes as well

I was using Terminator before  so I found it convenient to re-map Alt   arrow-key to switch between the panes  This can be done in Preferences -  Keys -  Key Mappings - press the     button to add a mapping  Also  in my case such a mapping was already defined in Profiles  I simply removed it
