BIIS (also known as BIIS 1200) is an ETSIEuropean Telecommunications Standards Institute. An independent, not-for-profit, standardization organization in the telecommunications industry in Europe, developing global telecommunications standards. protocol for a digital selective calling method with the added benefit of extended capability of transmitting data that exceeds what could be done with old 5-tone analog calling methods like CCIR and ZVEI.

BIIS is defined as ETSIEuropean Telecommunications Standards Institute. An independent, not-for-profit, standardization organization in the telecommunications industry in Europe, developing global telecommunications standards. 300-230 and it's official description is "A Selective Calling and Data Transmission on Single Frequencies System". BIIS operates at 1200 bpsBits per second (bps), which gives its name BIIS 1200. This is used by many public and private users, such as the Italian Red Cross. Receivers like Icom IC-F1710 also support this digital calling mode.

BIIS has a center frequency of 1500 HzHertz (Hz), unit of frequency, defined as one cycle per second (1 Hz). with a FSKFrequency-Shift Keying shift of 600 HzHertz (Hz), unit of frequency, defined as one cycle per second (1 Hz).. Channel spacing is set at 12.5, 20, and 25 kHzKiloHertz (kHz) 10^3 Hz.
