Sorry for the mis-quote, of course I was referring to closing the CD-rom
drawer, not the ports...

The man says:

DESCRIPTION
       Eject allows removable media (typically a CD-ROM, floppy disk, tape, or
       JAZ or ZIP disk) to be ejected under software control. The command  can
       also  control  some  multi-disc CD-ROM changers, the auto-eject feature
       supported by some devices, and close  the  disc  tray  of  some  CD-ROM
       drives.
