In four-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the truncated 4-simplex honeycomb, truncated 5-cell honeycomb is a space-filling tessellation honeycomb. It is composed of 5-cells, truncated 5-cells, and bitruncated 5-cells facets in a ratio of 2:2:1.

Parallel cells of this honeycomb can be grouped into 5 sets of parallel hyperplanes, each filled by a quarter cubic honeycomb.[1]
