They exchange outside the designated area.
They had cross the line in 6th place before realising it was a DQ.

http://www.trinidadexpress.com/index.pl/article_sports?id=95948302
The Trinidad and Tobagomen's 4 x400 metres quartet returned a time of three minutes, 01.60 seconds in the championship race. The clocking would have earned the country sixth spot, anchorman Barry crossing the line ahead of France's Marc Raquil and Russian Yevgeniy Lebedev.

But to Barry's surprise, the dreaded "DQ" was posted next to "Trinidad and Tobago". The disqualification came on the second exchange, when 17-year-old Quow received the baton from Raeburn outside the exchange zone.

I was also surprised to see the DQ in the first post here. That is because in the video shown here (Calif),  T&T was listed as 6th and the DQ was not discussed.

Anyway thanks for clearing that up dcs.
