In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space, the order-7 cubic honeycomb is a regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb). With Schläfli symbol {4,3,7}, it has seven cubes {4,3} around each edge. All vertices are ultra-ideal (existing beyond the ideal boundary) with infinitely many cubes existing around each vertex in an order-7 triangular tiling vertex arrangement.
