We'd like to add a stobe light ringer to a polycom phone. Our environment is loud and sometimes it's impossible to hear the phone ring.

Poly and Algo both make solutions for this:

https://www.algosolutions.com/product/2506-polycom-vvx-ring-detector/

The Algo solution requires Algo SIP speakers and utilizing the speaker's relay so that incoming calls ring via the overhead PA.

But honestly, your best bet likely is just to buy a SIP speaker (like an Algo 8180: https://www.algosolutions.com/product/8180-sip-audio-alerter/), register it as a device in RingCentral, power it via PoE, and add it to ring simultaneously with your loud shop/environment phone(s).
