Most of our towers are running on Netgear FS105 and FS108 switches (the ones in the blue metal boxes, not the cheap plastic ones), and the occasional Linksys el-cheapo switch (don't have the part number handy). We only have about one switch per year die, and that's usually from lightning or power surges, as opposed to weather per se. They're not special fancy magic weatherproof switches, but they work just fine for us. This is in the midwest US, so the temperature extremes are 0 and 110 Fahrenheit. Your weather may vary.
