I think it means something like" on the other hand" but wait for more input. The dictionary also says "moreover".

Hi John! Welcome to SpanishDict! Nizhoni1 is right. "On the other hand" is probably the most common translation of "por otra parte". Since it is a connective phrase, there may be other ways that it could be translated, based on the flow of thought and the context:
What is more,
Also,
However,
Moreover,
Meanwhile,
In addition,
I hope this helps, and we look forward to having you around!

So does this mean the same thing as "en cambio"?
I would venture to say 'Yes'. I think 'en cambio' is a transitional phrase that could be used in place of 'por otra parte'.
