Decimator substitute?

Signal from my c300 mark II comes out in all sort of framerate flavors thus confusing the heck out of my legacy HDMI wireless transmitter/receiver combo. On my A-camera i have Decimator that converts anything the camera spits out into 1080i that is acceptable by both the wireless transmitter and my legacy client monitors. Any other SIMPLER devices that simply convert anything into 1080i?
 
It's been a while since I've checked, but AJA as well as Blackmagic Design have a few mini converters. Might check there first.
 
Assuming you have an MD-HX. That is I think the best converter box out there for its flexibility and reliability. AJA boxes generally require voltage stepdown to 5V, so the p-tap cables are more expensive/complex than corresponding Decimator ones. Blackmagic boxes are variable with their max input voltage also. The Blackmagic Up-Down-Cross should work well for what you are doing--you set the dipswitches to 1080i and it should convert all incoming signals to that (and it is half the price of the MD-HX).
