The U's have been handed an all-League One clash at the Weston Homes Community Stadium, after the draw was made in Manchester.
Colchester progressed to the second round of the competition for the first time since 2011, after beating Conference South side Gosport Borough 6-3 yesterday.
Freddie Sears scored twice and there were further goals for Sanchez Watt, Gavin Massey, Alex Gilbey and Sammie Szmodics.
The second-round tie will be played on the weekend of December 6 and 7.
