As far as I know, both are very good units.
I know that some of the older plaintree gear had flaky tx/rx units that
weren't aligned right at the factory. But I've sold a little bit of their
stuff over the years and I don't remember any complaints. Other than the
sheer size of the units, fso is usually bigger than we're used to dealing
with. In the case of plaintree, that size is also part of what keeps the
units from needing such exact aiming.
I've cc'd a couple of the plaintree folks here. That'll help you contact
them.

Whats the reliability factor?
I've been thinking of adding fso for a couple links now for a couple
years.
Now I could put 100megs duplex to use rather than waste the spectrum.
But how well does this stuff stand up?
Haven't heard much about anyones experiences good or bad.
is it 6 9's?
does the power supplies burn out or the units need to be repaired often?
Or are they switch em on and walk a way for a few years?

And for a link that short I'd look REALLY hard at fso gear.

Plaintree has some cool infrared systems. They handle dust and such
better than lasers.
If you want laser systems, EC has some that are pretty cool too. Not too
expensive either.

I need a couple very short range PtP links. A few hundred feet at most
for each one. Something that did close to 50 or even 100 megs duplex
would be good
Has anyone worked with Free Space Optics and can advice?
Also looking to be frugal. But don't want 5 gig.
