Nothing is quite as challenging as trying to find a driver for an old piece of hardware when the company that created the product has been acquired. In my case, I was looking for a driver for the Keyspan USA-19QW USB to Serial adapter. It appears that Tripplite bought the company, but doesn’t seem to have the link to the driver on their website. They had a site where you could still download the driver for the Keyspan USA-19QW and other devices, but it’s been down for a few years.
Try to google for it and you’ll find a million people looking for it and another million sites trying to get you to install their driver scanner solution.
If you’re looking for straightforward access to the driver with no searching and no gimicks, look no further!

If this file helped you, please, let me know. It took me a good while to go back and find it!
That said, after messing around with getting this device to work in Windows 8 (unsuccessfully), I chose to purchase a SABRENT CB-FTDI 6FT USB to Serial adapter and it works like a champ in Windows 8/8.1.
I looked everywhere for this driver. Finally found you. My 19-HS died and I still had a 19-QW laying around but its no good without the old drivers. Thank You very much. I ordered a new HS but I can’t be without this device. Gary
I’m right there with you Gary. Finding this file is a beast so I hope this serves as a life-long repository for people like us to grab it. Enjoy!
Appreciate your file and help. Probably will avoid Triplite and Keyspan in future. Thanks!
Thx for the post, now to get the driver to install properly on windows 8… advanced startup with driver verification off is still no working :-/
Glad it helped you. Ultimately I had no luck getting it to work, but instead purchased a SABRENT CB-FTDI 6FT USB to Serial adapter
and it works like a champ with Windows 8.1. I’d recommend that you don’t waste too much time trying to get it to work (like I did) and just buy that since it’s so cheap.
Hey Joe, great job finding this! FYI, I’ve downloaded twice and it keeps coming up as corrupt when I try the self-extractor. Opened as zip file, and extracted individual files. Still got some corruption messages, but was able to run the setup and get the beast working.
Happy you found it useful. That’s interesting on the download side. I’ll have to look into it and see if there’s something wrong with the file…
Steve, I’m sorry about the corrupt downloads earlier. I found out that the download plugin introduced some bugs and required disabling some features to make downloads work again. I’ve fixed them and the downloads should be good now. Thanks!
Thank you very much,
i was actually looking for the keyspan usa-19qi driver !
all the search engines turn up crap spyware driver installer programs,
all a waste of time !
Joseph,
Thank you for the driver. Some of my old Ham equipment will enjoy a second life. Again, Thank You and have a happy holiday.

Pat, I’m glad to help with a great cause like that. Enjoy!
Nice post, but I still could not get it to work. Quite possibly because i’m running Win7x64. Either way, maybe that is helpful info for someone else.
Thank you very much – you saved me a lot of hardache !
Awesome man, I’m glad the post is still relevant. 🙂
