Crossovers
The Google product category ID for Crossovers is 5435, written as a path "Electronics > Audio > Audio Components > Signal Processors > Crossovers". It is a leaf: the taxonomy does not continue below it, so this is the most specific value on this branch, and if your product fits here there is nothing more precise to pick. It sits under Signal Processors.

Where this sits in the taxonomy
Measured by how much sits beneath them, Crossovers is fifth largest of the 7 categories under Signal Processors, with 0 categories below it.

Using this value
Either form of this value goes in the google_product_category attribute: the numeric ID (5435) or the full path ("Electronics > Audio > Audio Components > Signal Processors > Crossovers"). Both are predefined values for the same category. The ID is the sturdier of the two, because renaming any segment above this one changes the path text and leaves the number alone.
Bear in mind that google_product_category is an optional attribute. Google assigns a category automatically, and your value is treated as a signal rather than an override. When an override actually applies.

Either row below is accepted. The first is the one to send.
| id | title | google_product_category |
|---|---|---|
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | 5435 |
| SKU-1001 | Your product title | Electronics > Audio > Audio Components > Signal Processors > Crossovers |
This path has no comma, so an unquoted cell holds it as it stands — which is not true of every category in the taxonomy. The numeric ID, 5435, is the form that does not depend on how the file is quoted.
Questions about Crossovers
What is the Google product category ID for Crossovers?
5435. The full path, "Electronics > Audio > Audio Components > Signal Processors > Crossovers", is the same category written the other way. The ID is shorter, and renaming a segment above this one changes the path text while leaving the number alone.
Is anything more specific than Crossovers available?
No. Crossovers is a leaf of Google's taxonomy at level 5, so 5435 is the most precise value this branch offers. If it does not describe your product closely enough, the answer is a different branch, not a deeper one.
Where does Crossovers sit in the taxonomy?
At level 5, under Signal Processors (246). The chain from the top is Electronics → Audio → Audio Components → Signal Processors → Crossovers. If your product does not belong under Signal Processors, it does not belong here either — check the level above before going deeper.
What should I use if Crossovers is not quite right?
Look across the rest of Signal Processors first — there are 6 other categories at this level: Effects Processors (247), Equalizers (248), Loudspeaker Management Systems (5597), Microphone Preamps (3945), Noise Gates & Compressors (5596), Phono Preamps (5369). If none of them fits either, the problem is higher up: go back to Signal Processors (246) and pick a different branch from there rather than settling for the closest thing on this one.
How big is Crossovers compared with the categories next to it?
It is fifth largest of the 7 at its level, carrying 0 categories below it. A bigger category is not a better one — it just means more of the taxonomy is still open below you after you pick it.
