There are 12 12 surface diagonals which each have a length of 2 \sqrt{2} thus the product of the surface diagonals is ( 2 ) 12 = 2 6 = 64 (\sqrt{2})^{12}=2^6=64 . There are 4 4 space diagonals which each have a length of 3 \sqrt{3} thus the product of the surface diagonals is ( 3 ) 4 = 3 2 = 9 (\sqrt{3})^4=3^2=9 . Thus our answer is 64 9 = 576 64*9=\boxed{576}
