A console can either be a piece of furniture or an architectural term and is not reserved to Egyptology.

Until you can give further information to precise the context of where you read this sentence (or even better can link to a picture) I presume this could refer to the piece of furniture. In museums pieces are sometimes displayed on a console (same word in English) and information about the pieces are often given on the console itself.

I would surmise that console here is a technical term in the museum business, maybe museums stores their artifacts in “consoles” in their rooms. But that is only a guess on my part.

In the context of your question "console" appears to be a technical term used in architecture.

Generally, the technical and scientific terms keep their meaning in any language.

English: console

French: console

German: konsole

So, it has no special meaning:

However, according to the console number, this stele belongs to the XXVIIth dynasty.
