Abstract: We prove that the simplicial boundary of a CAT(0) cube complex admitting a proper, cocompact action by a virtually $integer{s}^n$ group is isomorphic to the hyperoctahedral triangulation of $S^{n-1}$, providing a class of groups $G$ for which the simplicial boundary of a $G$-cocompact cube complex depends only on $G$. We also use this result to show that the cocompactly cubulated crystallographic groups in dimension $n$ are precisely those that are emph{hyperoctahedral}. We apply this result to answer a question of Wise on cocompactly cubulating virtually free abelian groups.
