I would like to install a group of outdoor sensor lights that will turn on all sensor lights when one of them is triggered, like NetBright, but I do not want battery-operated ones. Are there products out there that can do this?

Many occupancy sensors allow you to adjust the amount of time that they can't see you before they shut the lights off. I'm not sure what model you have, so I can't instruct you exactly how to adjust, but setting the timeout time to something longer would probably save you the trouble of building something to circumvent it.
For example, a panel on this Leviton switch pops off to reveal some adjustment controls.
If your office is managed by your company or a building manager, it may be worth asking the maintenance guy.
Put the sensor in the space you are trying to light, and suddenly this "common need" becomes "not a need at all" which is why you can't find them, since that's how it's done, when done conventionally.
Either move the switch into the room or get a remote sensor switch and put the sensor in the room.

Yes, there are. Some speak the X10 carrier-current signalling protocol, some use more modern communications. Obviously you would need to buy compatible components.
A good home-automation catalog or a website on that topic could give you product suggestions; we don't generally do that here.
