Hi guys,
I was wondering if someone can point me in the right direction. I am looking for A POE switch thats wall mountable with mount points at the side of the switch not in the middle to hang, Also I am looking for a company that supplys out door Junction boxes that can saftly house a Switch for POE cameras, Also has an incoming power supply, similar to this image

Standards will vary depending on if it's for cameras, AP etc. I can't seem to find any switches that are wall mountable similar to that one there, generally 5-8 ports
 
You must know what POE standard your cameras require. If not you're asking the question too soon. You must also know if you want 10/100 or Gigabit.

You must also know how many cameras you need to support.

Many switches that take rack ears allow them to be rotated a quarter turn to act as wall mount brackets.
 
You don't need a junction box, a simple grommit in the bottom of a box like that is perfectly fine. (5 grommets for 5 cables).

As Bremen says, there isn't a magical switch to do all standards of PoE. You could get something like a 48v 8 port netgear and then use inline converters to drop voltage to 24v if you choose to run prepiatory poe like Ubiquiti or MikroTik or you could get a 24v PoE switch (RB260GSP) and negate anything 48v
 
The Ubiquiti UniFi 8 port switch will do 802.3af, at and 24v passive. It won't do 48v passive or 56v and later versions have rack ears that can be rotated around.

If you want a standalone budget(ish) switch designed for that sort of deployment then look at http://www.trendnet.com/products/business/switches/hardened. I have used the Cisco Industrial Ethernet switches previously and they are very good, but I imagine outside of your price range.

Sorry Guys,
I am aware of the standards for POE, Hence some Jobs would be using Switches that can take 802.3af for IP cameras, Some times It would be for AP other I would need 24V, I can also use POE injectors etc. But I was only on the look out for similar wall mounted switches like on the picture. I generally Use hikvision cameras and Ubiquiti Access panels.
