A circular loop carrying a current is replaced by an equivalent magnetic dipole. A point on the loop is in

Any point on the equatorial line of a bar magnet (or a magnetic dipole) is called as a point at “Broadside-on position”. So, when the current carrying circular loop is replaced with a magnetic dipole, the point on the loop comes at the equatorial position, Thus the point is said to be located at broadside-on position.
