The LEDs on the front panel indicate the active connection and status.

Recommendations

For stable 4K@60Hz performance use high-quality HDMI 2.0 or DisplayPort 1.2 cables and ensure source GPUs and display support the chosen resolution and HDCP version. Place the external IR receiver within line of sight of the remote control if the KVM switch is installed out of direct range.
