I have similar experience in various equinix datacenters. I finally
resorted to using a blue-tooth capable phone and bringing in my
Aviation ANR headset with blootooth capabilities.
It's a pricey headset for just using in a datacenter, but, I love having
it in the airplane and it also works well in the datacenter.
It's called a Lightspeed Zulu ANR headset.

All,
I'd be OK if we were in a facility that was only average in terms of
noise, but we are not. I need an exceptional phone for the data
center.
Something that doesn't transmit the horrible background noise to the
other end, and something that is loud without being painful for the
user
of this phone. Cordless would be very fine, headset is excellent.
Ordinary desk phone is OK... but the most important thing is that it
works for clear communication. A loud ringer would great too... but if
the best phone doesn't have one, I'll get an auxiliary ringer.
Does anyone have a phone model that they find to be excellent in a
louder than usual data center?
Thanks!
Mike
