In geometry, a cuboctahedral prism is a convex uniform 4-polytope. This 4-polytope has 16 polyhedral cells: 2 cuboctahedra connected by 8 triangular prisms, and 6 cubes.

It is one of 18 uniform polyhedral prisms created by using uniform prisms to connect pairs of parallel Platonic solids and Archimedean solids.
